Description Tabs

Description
Locality: 
Okorusu Mine, Otjiwarongo, Otjozondjupa Region, Namibia

Crystal Group/Cluster
Size Range: 
Miniature (4.5-7 cm)
Size:

Description

The main crystal iso 27mm on edges. The faces are highly lustrous and the termination is razor-sharp. We know these colors from Okorusu well, but not in this crazy saturation; I would say not even 10% show this intensity! One further important indicator is the exposed and complete main crystal. Most specimen are clusters - free-standing and complete crystals in this size are exceptional. The translucency is also on very high level - it needs only minor backlight to expose the colors. The piece looks great in various angles and the colors are even more impressive in person - this is really a mayor piece for Okorusu.
