Three, large, intergrown crystals of richly blue green, matte lustered amazonite, to 8.6 cm in length, have formed an imposing cluster. The saturated cluster and imposing sharpness of the crystals, in this solid fist sized cluster, really make an impact. Self collected by the late Bob Bartsch. One of the few good pieces released from the Bartsch collection, I obtained these few specimens from Rock himself when he executed the estate of his friend.
