Item Description

Impressive and sculptural, large 10.3 cm pair of parallel-growth aegirine crystals accented with offset terminations from Mount Malosa. The brilliant luster, jet-black prisms have a few olive-green areas under bright light. The single attached smaller crystal near the termination and cluster of crystals at the base add artistic aesthetics. The blunt terminations are pitted, embedded with matrix and also host a very cute, 5 mm, doubly terminated Quartz crystal. From the collection of well-known Dr. Steve Smale of San Francisco. Steve has assembled one of the finest mineral collections in the world. Choice and excellent Mount Malosa aegirine. From finds circa 2000.
