Item Description
Lustrous, sharp, very dark purple or black, spinel octahedrons to 1.4 cm are aesthetically clustered on the sugary marble matrix. A couple of tips have nifty flashes of yellow-orange translucence. Fragments of intense apple-green pargasite, an uncommon and unlikely looking Amphibole Group species, on the back are a nice compliment. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock.
