Item Description
Sculptural and impressive 360-degree mounded small cabinet cluster of razor-sharp, tapered ferro-axinite blades from Puiva. The striking glassy luster blades have beautiful clove-brown color, when backlit. The dominant upright crystal is 3.7 x 3.6 cm. Periphery wear is noted to two of the larger upright blades, including the largest. A major SURPRISE in on the base! A pristine, 6.6 cm, doubly terminated crystal is located here. This is from the late 1980s to early 1990s finds at Puiva, with very little since. Puiva axinites set the world-wide standard for the species and this is an excellent and rich specimen.
