Item Description
Brazilianite is an uncommon phosphate species, with a distinctive color that is almost unmistakable. The best / most well-known specimens have come from a few localities in Brazil, but the species fairly rare from the majority of the other world localities This piece is an excellent older specimen dating back a few decades, featuring a pair of sharp, well-formed, very lustrous, translucent, monoclinic, prismatic yellow-green crystals of Brazilianite measuring up to 3.7 cm long aesthetically sitting on partially etched, white Albite matrix. Good quality, and very showy, and certainly good-sized crystals for the species.
Ex Shields Flynn collection.
