Item Description
A beautiful, classic, tabular morganite crystal. The incredibly glassy, rich pink crystal has water-clear edges and prism faces, with the typical translucent inner core. The muscovite stalk adds character and there are even seven small green pencil tourmalines to 1.0 cm on the muscovite! Ex. Herb Obodda dealer stock. Herb Obodda valued this cute morganite combination at $450, more than five years ago. It is worth $500-700 today, with the ongoing conflict. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
