Item Description
Eudidymite is a rare hydrated Na-Be silicate. This is a sharp, book (it reminds me of a bellows) of pearlescent, tan blades (thin lamellae). This fine example of the species is sharp and well-defined. The world's best and largest crystals of Eudidymite come from Malawi. An aesthetic, quality example of this uncommon species.
