Kunzite (223 grams) (ex Obodda)

Item Description

A wonderfully thick and gemmy etched Kunzite from Afghanistan. The piece is essentially a floater as I can't see a true point of attachment from the pocket well. The form is not typical in my experience, as most crystals are rather slender. You rarely see such well terminated Kunzite crystals from any locality, let alone crystals that are this deep and gemmy. I must stress that the crystal is VERY gemmy and with the two-dimensional limitations of photography, it was not the easiest specimen to shoot. The crystal has a medium color when viewed on the "a" axis, but When viewed down the "c" axis, one can see a magnificent INTENSE purplish-pink hue! The form, size and gemmines make it a great gem crystal from this most prolific gem producing region. Good crystallized Kunzites are only found in a few places on earth. Ex Herb Obodda, and priced at $3000 in his inventory.
