Description

Single crystal of amazonite from this Ethiopian pegmatite locale. Color is pale blue with white perthitic structures, providing a delicate color contrast. On the side, a couple sheets of white silvery mica (muscovite?) give further lustre to the crystal.
In very good conditions, it comes from a known find at the beginning of the 2000s. My best specimen yet from this African locality.
