Description
These unusual specimens became instant classics when they first began showing up a few years ago, and it seems the supply is dwindling. Of those I have handled, this is one of the more intriguing ones. The crystal is 4.5 cm on edge and has very good luster. Additionally, there are two distinguishing features that make this truly outstanding. First, the Apophyllite appears to be penetration-twinned! Second, the main crystal sits on a tabular Apophyllite that ends up serving as a perfect base for the display of the specimen, and that was exactly how it was photographed. Also, its just huge, the biggest I have seen so uniformaly colored. This is a very fine specimen, indeed.

How this data is collected: Our system continuously monitors mineral listings from authorized dealer partners across the internet. We have explicit permission from all dealers whose listings we track - any dealers who have not provided specific and explicit authorization are NOT listed and NOT tracked by our system. When a previously available listing is marked as sold or removed from sale, we record this as a completed transaction. While we cannot guarantee the exact final sale price (as negotiations may occur), this data represents publicly listed prices for specimens that have transitioned from "for sale" to "sold" status. This provides valuable market insights based on observable listing behavior patterns.
