| DESCRIPTION: |
Super lot of Pale Pinkish to Pastel Pink Afghani Kunzite Crystals. First of all, this material is much better than the above pictures indicate and it really has to be seen to be fully appreciated (we haven't cleaned the exterior). Both of these pieces are fully etched crystals and terminated all around with the most INSANE luster! These are from a new find in Kantiwow and were originally a lovely deep Aqua Blue; however, we had to fade them to sunlight so as not to deal with any changes after sale. Kunzite naturally comes out of the ground in some awesome Bluish colors but fades to a dominant Pinkish or Purplish color after exposure to sunlight! This is a NATURAL effect and this material has NOT been treated in ANY way! Overall these crystals are EXTREMELY clean and I think about 80% of this is Top Facet Grade while the remainder is some type of Facet Grade. These have good value as Gem Crystal Specimen because of the beautiful etched pattern on these and would probably sell at $200-$400 a piece as such easily. The tips of these look almost like a mountain landscape! I personally wouldn't facet these but that is a choice you will have to decide on. These are not small pieces with the average weight here being almost 200 CARATS! In addition, since these are crystals they are well shaped for high yield! We have discounted these so as to make them affordable to any crystal collector that may want to pick them up! PLEASE BE AWARE THAT KUNZITE IS NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART! If you have not dealt with Kunzite before I would not recommend picking this up. We are confident there are some lovely LARGE gems just waiting to come out of this! Don't miss your opportunity to pick this up as we will not stock much of this material because of current market prices. |
