Item Description
Typically Petalite occurs in colorless crystals, and are rarely well crystallized. This piece is an excellent crystallized example of the "champagne" color Petalite from a new find in Burma. It is an almost ethereal, etched crystal of Petalite with a darker hue than I'm used to seeing for this material. The interior of the crystal is nearly 100% gem quality, and a decent gem crystal display specimen that would fit nicely many collections.
