Item Description
There are truly about 5 localities in the world to produce fine crystallized Ludlamite specimens (i.e., Cornwall, Santa Eulalia, Trepca, Blackbird Mine in Idaho and Huanuni, Bolivia), and ALL of them, except for Huanuni and now defunct. This piece features fantastic Ludlamite crystals which are lustrous, very well-formed, gemmy and aesthetically set on matrix on this EXCELLENT thumbnail from the small, 1992 find at the famous San Antonio Mine at Santa Eulalia. These were snapped up quickly, with no more good ones, since! Great balance, aesthetics and overall quality. The main group of crystals measures 1.7 cm. Priced at $1000.
