Microcline var. Amazonite from USA$3,000.00
Wire transfers available, to set up
Pegmatites of the Pikes Peak batholith have produced some of the finest Amazonite specimens from the standpoint of color, form, associations, and sheer display quality, the mines in the Lake George area producing their fair share. This small cabinet specimen is most notable for its choice of form and intense rich color. Together, this makes it look like a sculpture, with geometrical perfection you rarely see. The color is variegated, ranging from a typical and desired blue-green to areas within the crystal that are more of a pure blue. This is an interesting and attractive variation that isn’t all that common. Undoubtedly an old-timer, this is a classic Amazonite specimen from one of the most storied and well-known districts in Colorado. Importantly, one crystal is reattached but with magnificent color and shape, as do many in this size from more modern finds at nearby different locations in the region.
