Item Description
These contemporary Ethiopian amazonites are giving Colorado ones, formerly the "kings" of the species, a run for their money. The color, of this large, sharp, compound crystal is a lovely, light turquoise-blue. The form is beautifully complex, architectural and sharp and the crystal may be twinned. The "cave" on the side is facinating. The base and the back are contacted on the beautiful, striking specimen. Highly representative.
