A rare locality piece! This is a neat cluster of two very gemmy, intergrown diamonds showing unusual rounded crystal form. It is a respectable size thumbnail specimen and diamond, at 20.53 carats. Although the smaller of the two, this is more aesthetic. I cannot say I have seen the like from any other locale, either. This was one of two such diamonds I bought at the Tucson 2009 show and have held back awaiting hopes of more from my source (but no more came out). The piece is illustrated in the "Whats New from Tucson" article for that year (May June issue, 2009, page 248). I have not seen more since that show. Joe Budd photos
