Diaspore (classic material)

Item Description

This is a nice, classic, translucent crystal of Diaspore. Most collectors would consider these historic mines of Turkey to be the premiere source for gem Diaspore crystals of any significance. Good condition overall, despite a bit of edgewear, but it does have a notably well-formed termination. There are only a few places in the world where one can obtain a Diaspore crystal, and good specimens are next to impossible to find on the market these days.
