Item Description

A beautiful and extremely sharp and gemmy Axinite crystal from Puiva. Most specimens were found during the mid to late 1990's and then stopped altogether. The piece is nearly complete all the way around as you can see from the photos. The crystal is actually incredibly smooth and sharp with good internal gemminess. I don't need to tell you that this is a hard to find thumbnail specimen from an important locality.
