Item Description
From a find at the end of 2017. Some of the most classic Chyrsoberyl specimens in the world are those from the small state Espirito Santo in southeastern Brazil. These specimens exhibit some of the most recognized and celebrated crystal habits for Chrysoberyl extant in the form of beautiful "sixling" and "heart-shaped" twins. This specimen features several twins intergrown to create a unique and three-dimensional display piece with a lovely yellow-green internal color and sharp, lustrous faces. The piece is mostly complete all around with only a few spots of roughness. A lovely thumbnail sized piece of these beloved, classic specimens. Don't miss out as there were only a few of these available, and they have a different "look" from any other Chrysoberyls we've seen from this locality.
