Item Description

Three lustrous, jet-black neptunite crystals are aesthetically set on blocky blue-gray small cabinet serpentine matrix strikingly contrasted with patches of snow-white natrolite from the famous New Idria area of San Benito County, near the famous Dallas Gem Mine (Benitoite & Neptunite). The beautiful and sculptural well-placed doubly terminated parallel-growth crystal is 2.3 cm long. Ex Bob Reynolds Collection, a well-known fossil and mineral expert and Curator of the San Bernardino County Museum. He passed away in 2020. The piece displays well without aid.
