Gem Epidote xl

Item Description

A stunning, water-clear, gem, epidote crystal from recent finds in Pakistan. This glassy, well-striated, tabular crystal has a nifty double termination and 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 15-20 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 edge wear is noted. The gemmy quality and rich color of this beauty are top-fllight. Valued at $450.
