Item Description
Rapid Creek is known for the best lazulites in the world. Isolated, scintillating, indigo-blue to midnight-blue crystals to a large 1.4 cm are aesthetically clustered on this very showy and excellent specimen. The major crystals are all pristine. This piece is significant, due to the discrete, larger than normal crystals. Most such specimen have intensely intergrown crystals. Classic, uncommon and older material from the Howard Belsky Collection.
