Benitoite on Natrolite (Belsky Coll.)

Item Description

Lustrous, partially gemmy, indigo-blue, benitoite crystals to 7 mm are aesthetically scattered on the sculptural, triangular, matrix of starkly contrasting, snow-white natrolite on this very showy, classic specimen from the famous Dallas Gem Mine. Expertly collected, all of the benitoites are pristine on this fine combination specimen. Ex Howard Belsky Collection. Howard started as a mineral dealer at age 13 in 1972, became a sophisticated dealer and died tragically at age 28 in 1987. His collection recently became available to us through his family.
