Spring update
A stunning classic Dravite specimen with honey brown lustrous crystals nicely exposed on matrix. Ex Carter Rich and Bill Hladysz, this is in remarkable condition, with only contacts on the back and one side but no damage at all. These old Gouverneur specimens (St Lawrence County, NY) rarely have such sharp form, warm color and strong esthetics.
From recent finds of Dravite in Tanzania, this is a very sharp, lustrous and surprisingly gemmy single crystal. Deep red brown color in excellent condition this glows with a backlight, in normal lighting it looks darker, more like the photos shown here.
