Item Description
For what is normally just thought of as a rock-forming species, this is one of the best of the Namibian Actinolites that I have seen. This single crystal has deep-green color, great luster, beautifully-striated faces, and a fibrous, 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 7.6 cm. An excellent and aesthetic Actinolite. Better in person, by far.
