Lepidolite (excellent and rare style)

Item Description

Beautiful, translucent crystal rosettes to 1.8 cm, hump up a dramatic wave in the center of this very 3-dimensional specimen that is about as big as most collectors would normally wish for. Better color and luster, in person! The major cluster, the whole top of the piece, is pristine and has the absolute top translucency and color for the find. It sits on a natural "pedestal" of less gemmy, but still colorful lepidolite that rolls down at its base. There is some damage to the frontal portion of the lower part of the specimen that could be trimmed off but its so pretty overall, and so colorful, I just like to leave it as is for color splash. The crown spills over on to the back. Choice large material valued at $850.
