Item Description
A colorful and uncommon wedge of translucent, golden-yellow, lepidolite, with knobby rosette growth, up to 1.3 cm across. It is only when the specimen is tilted back and forth that the viewer sees highlights from the foliated lepidolite. From a small 2008 find. Excellent three-sided material, that is nicely accented with glassy, pastel-pink lepidolite crystals.
