Item Description

A glorious, gem, rich sea-green with blue highlights, parallel-growth 2.8 cm vivianite crystal with a striking sharp, angled termination. The beautiful pristine crystal is aesthetically set on the sculptural sandstone matrix, diagnostic to the Tomokoni finds of the early 2000s. Once common, no new finds have come forth since then. A very fine example of the species and locale.
