large Serandite (classic locale) ex Conklin

Item Description

Dramatically intersecting crossed clusters of lustrous, parallel-growth, salmon-pink blades form an impressive large specimen from the famous Poudrette Quarry. Bladed serandite of this habit is rather more uncommon than the normally seen blocky habit. Etching on the lower front, sides and back adds interest. An expressive and important large example of this Holy Grail species from the Larry Conklin dealer stock. Probably from the early 1980s. Valued at $1750-2000.
