An incredible 6.6 cm Afghanite crystal, rich and well-terminated, stands proudly on a white marble matrix. Lustrous and fluorescent, this crystal is a rare member of the feldspathoid mineral group. Its intense blue hue is outstanding, complemented by a rare and distinctive shape.
This razor-sharp crystal exhibits magnificent color, remarkable geometry, excellent luster, and a sharply defined termination. While there is one repair at the top, the display remains truly extraordinary. The specimen’s distinguished aesthetics and striking visual impact set it apart.
