Item Description

A very showy, two-sided, schorl specimen from recent finds at Erongo Mountain, Namibia. This highly lustrous, near floater specimen is unusual, in that many of the schorl crystals have sharp terminations, while the side of the crystals are heavily etched in a stair-stepped fashion. Facinating. There are only a few points of attachment to this excellent, highly representative piece. The bit of starkly contrasting feldspar is a nice compliment. Ex Wes Parker Collection.
