Item Description

The recent finds of amazonite in Ethiopia have rivaled those from Colorado. This complete all-around and pristine crystal has classic turquoise-blue color and is an uncommon for the locale, Manebach twin. The lustrous crystal faces accentuate the fine termination (where the twinning plane is evident) and textbook form. Most excellent and rare material from this find. You dont see much around anymore. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. sharp!
