Item Description
A superb, dramatic, very sharp, totally gemmy, light pink, doubly terminated floater spearpoint of kunzite from San Diego. Crystals of this quality from modern workings are even rarer than those surviving from the turn of the 1900s era of mining here. This was probably collected in the 1970s. Ex Al Ordway Collection. 153 grams and comes with a custom-made lucite base valued at $50, for free.
