The jet black schorl is complete, pristine, and has incredible luster. It is accented by a thin drapery of snowy white hyalite opal which was deposited on the schorl crystals, dripping down from above perhaps. The contrast could not be any starker, making this schorl a very showy specimen. Ex. Charlie Key.
