Titanite (twin)

Item Description

Arondu is one of the lesser known Titanite localities in Pakistan, but this area has produced some top quality crystals of the species, especially some killer twins. These are "Alpine-type" Titanite crystals, and the would be worth a great deal to any Alpine collector if there were found in Austria, Italy or Switzerland. This specimen is a very pronounced, sharp, lustrous, translucent, fine green color, twinned crystal of Titanite. A very attractive thumbnail, despite a small nick on the side. These pieces are some of the most difficult to obtain from Pakistan, especially these days.
