Item Description

Three, splendent, sharp, striated, gun metal-blue, anatase crystals to 1.2cm are aesthetically clustered on mounded quartz-rich matrix on this very showy and excellent specimen from recent finds at Kharan, Pakistan. These superb crystals have been trickling out of Pakistan over the last couple of years, but are rare in this quality. They compare very favorably with Norwegian anatase. Fairly valued at $1250 for excellent quality.
