AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful 2024 novelty: black sapphirine on Madagascar matrix.

Locality: Amboasary, Madagascar

100% natural

Sapphirine is very common in certain types of metamorphic rocks. But, curiously, it is rare to see it in crystal form. The first high-quality minerals to be collected were found in Madagascar about 25 years ago. Here, the sapphirine crystal is complete, with its growth striations clearly visible. The edges are perfectly defined and sharp.

Moreover, this specimen is rare to find on its matrix and is well-formed with its growth striations.
Very little stock due to low production, ...

Beautiful piece, beautiful composition.
