Gem Epidote xl

Item Description

A stunning, water-clear, gem, epidote crystal from recent finds in Pakistan. This glassy, well-striated crystal is sharply terminated and has pleasing clove-brown color. This species is one of the most well-known of all the Alpine cleft minerals in the world, and Pakistan has been producing some of the finest epidote specimens in the world over the last 15 years. These specimens are seemingly identical to the classic Alpine specimens from Europe, and in certain instances, have surpassed the European specimens for quality and gemminess. Complete all-around. A trivial bit of termination edgewear and contacting on one edge, with very minimal brusing is noted. The gemmy quality and rich color of this beauty are top-fllight. 23 grams.
