Item Description
The best of the Namibian Actinolites that I have seen, at least, by a long stretch. This single crystal has deep-green, beautifully-striated faces with a fibrous and silvery termination that has to be seen to be believed. These specimens are gorgeous in their own right just for those silver tips! This large crystal is 6.5 cm. An excellent and aesthetic Actinolite, unusual for such a normally boring rock-forming species.
