A superb, very sharp and totally gemmy floater of kunzite, from San Diego. Crystals of this quality from modern workings are even more rare than those surviving from the turn of the 1900s era of mining here. This was probably collected in the 1970s and was obtained from the Norm Dawson estate (Bob was owner of the White Queen for many decades).
