Description

This is an etremelly high quality brucite specimen!The piece comes from the first famous find of this increadible material!The species was rarely seen before this find and in terms of quality it was poor.This find gave pieces of superb color and luster and in some good cases with crystal faces!This miniature has the very deep color, almost the best you can ask for, that only a 5% of the pieces had, and shows crystal faces! The luster is highest possible and the overall form is amazing, with bouquets of elongated crystals in cluster!The piece is terminated all around and there are small pieces of the original mother rock.Very few had this quality!
