Item Description

A rich and showy axinite miniature from this historic old Cornwall cliff deposit. Lustrous, gemmy to translucent, clove-brown axinite blades to 1.5 cm line cover the solid axinite matrix from the famous Roscommon Cliff, Cornwall, England. The interior is nearly pristine, with only trivial bruising. Periphery wear is noted, but it remains a highly representative example for the species and locality from a 2004 find. Classic Cornwall axinite.
