Item Description
This is a nice thumbnail example of what are some of the most well-known and beautifully crystallized Peridots in the world. These attractive Peridots crystals began showing up in the early 1990s and no world locality has produced the quality and quantity of euhedral Peridot crystals like Sapat Gali. This piece is a vibrant green colored, hydrothermally etched crystal group, free of matrix. The top portion of the crystal is nearly transparent when backlit (I would say it's bordering on gem quality). The graceful / ethereal etching creates a very pleasing overall effect.
