Gemmy, purple Pulsifer apatites are certainly the most sought-after apatites in the United States and are amongst the most desirable in the world. This is a sharp, gorgeous and gemmy Pulsifer apatite with classic, intensely purple color saturation, typical of the famous locale. The crystal is beautifully accented with a little corsage of bubbly quartz. Old-time, very choice material from the George Elling Collection.
