Item Description

A striking and aesthetic cluster of lustrous, jet-black aegirine crystals towering above the sculptural, blocky feldspar matrix. The two, stacked on top of each aegirines on the left side are 2.9 cm tall. The artistic composition of this combination specimen is very fine. The major upright crystals in the frontal view are all pristine. Very highly representative of the species and locality.
