Item Description

Yinnietharra dravites are generally considered to be the world's finest examples of the species. This is a fine, complete all-around small cabinet dodecahedron with nifty beveled prism faces. The highly lustrous crystal is a rich dark brown with moderate translucence. Golden-amber areas leap out under bright light! One termination corner is bruised and one prism face is contacted, but has very little actual damage. An excellent and highly representative example of the species and locale.
