Item Description
There is something to be said for the vibrant blue colors of euclase - very simply, they are gorgeous. This rich specimen is composed of crystals and crystal sections and is highlighted by a sharp, 1.6 cm crystal. This striking beauty is divided exactly in half! Half of the crystal is vibrant blues and half is totally colorless! Facinating. These are immensely desirable for the color, and hard to own, in crystals of this size. Now, more have been found in recent re-working at the mine, but they are either smaller in general if of this form, or larger but of a blockier habit. Ex Wes Parker Collection. Valued at $500-650.
