Item Description
White cap amazonites are a rare and desirable commodity for the Colorado collector. This complete all-around, pristine, sharp single crystal has pretty turquoise-blue color, very fine form and a striking, preferential white cap on the back termination. The crystal has gorgeous, partial translucence. This is an excellent example with fine color and form of this uncommon amazonite varietal. The bladed cleavelandite floret is a nice accent. Such pieces with this saturated color, style and good form, are generally valued between $300-500 for singles in this size range. A classic Colorado amazonite.
