Item Description
Parisite-(Ce) is a rare REE carbonate. This sharp, floater, gemmy, honey-brown thumbnail is a textbook, acute, doubly terminated, pseudohexagonal, pyramid crystal with striated faces. The lower termination has very trivial bruising. It looks just like a brown sapphire from Sri Lanka, but it's not! Very little new material has come from Zagi Mountain in the last few years, due to the conflict. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. a GORGEOUS and sharp gem xl! valued $400
