Item Description

A classic and aesthetic Shengus schorl specimen. The trigonal crystals have typical high luster, well-striated faces and frosted, matte terminations. The scattered bladed cleavelandite puffs and cluster and the nifty little quartz point are complimentary accents. Complete all-around, the bit of contacting to one schorl and the adjacent cleavelandite cluster are certainly very modest detractions. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. Herb valued this fine piece 360-degree specimen at $350, more than 10 years ago.
