SALE! #401

Custard-yellow Beryl crystal nestled between Muscovite and Albite!
An unusual color of Beryl with just a hint of green. You could almost call it a Heliodor.
From the Itatiaia Mine, Conselheiro Pena, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
Measures 5.5 cm by 7 cm in size with very glassy faces! Only the backside has etching.
Price $1500
NEW SALE PRICE IS $985!

SALE! #402 SOLD!

Beautiful, lustrous surfaces highlight this lavender Smithsonite specimen!
Rarer color from Choix, Sinaloa, Mexico, this plate is actually somewhat three
dimensional with botryoidal growths that rise upwards above the surface. The
sheen is intense and the color rich and even throughout. The only contact is
on the highest growth to lower left but is more along the side than the top so
it doesn't really detract. Measures 7.2 cm by 13.5 cm by 5.7 cm in total size.
Price $585
NEW SALE PRICE IS $400!

SALE! #403

LARGE crystals of Beryl var. Emerald on Schistic matrix!
The size of these Emerald crystals is very impressive considering that
the specimen is from Gamitha, Laghman Province, Afghanistan and
not Russia as I first thought. Both crystals are fully terminated with
flat terminations (and some Schist inclusions) and have better than
average color and good translucency. Measures 6.2 cm by 4.6 cm
in size with  2.6 cm and 2.5 cm Emeralds. Very aesthetic miniature!
Price $2500
NEW SALE PRICE IS $1450!
