Description

Here we have a very aesthic, richly salmon-coloured Serandite from the classic finds in the 1980s. This fine cluster is 3,1 cm in size and it has an excellent luster and interesting pattern along some faces. Serandites of this quality and colour intensity seldom turn up for resale now. This mini has not only the highly saturated colour, but the almost metallic surface luster and slight translucency that is the mark of the best pieces. The crystals are in remarkably good shape, with superb terminations. This is not only the world´s only locality for good Serandite, but really only a few pockets here ever produced it despite the mining of so much material. It is among the most beautiful and desired of rarities. These ONLY came from a few pockets at this amazing locality, and they are not like any other mineral in the world for colour and beauty.
