Description

Colorful amazonite crystal portion with excellent saturated blue color. The white spots are perthitic structures given by chemical unmixing within the crystal lattice.
Great color and contrast, the newer label (from the 70s) has been pasted on top of an older one.

No record on the collection's catalogue, Ploskaya is the most likely though.

Former collection Kasper (CH).
