Post Tucson 2022

A fine miniature of bright green crystal clusters of Anapaite nestled in a fossil clam shell. A modern classic, these fossil shells from the Crimea in Ukraine are unique in the world and are considered the best examples of this specie. They have become scarce in recent times. The crystals are lustrous, translucent and in excellent condition, contrasting with the black inside of the vug. A very choice piece that displays well and has a custom made acrylic base that holds this at an esthetic angle. Far better than the average of the find and a very good value.
