Beautiful LARGE and AAA+ quality chunk of rich purple/lavender charoite showing the nice swirling patterns (chatoyance effect). Nice accent and contrast with the still visible rough matrix present. Two large sides polished.
Included are aslo grey rounded pebbles of quartz, black aegirine and fine crystals of orange tinaksite.


Bought straight from the source where it was cut and afterwards polished by myself! Very nice from all sides.

Only found in ONE country in the world!
