Dumortierite in quartz

This is an interesting stone, the dumortierite is growing in the quartz in a ‘star-burst’ config, which is the usual appearance, but the crystals may grow in any way. This material is usually opaque as lapis, so this config, clear with good growth is a rare find. Ive seen bigger with a little more color then the price goes up-this will make a nice pendent from an unusual stone. The size is 10x10x7mm, 2.9cts.-steve…

I have acquired quite a few of these unique stones. They are incredible! I even have a few that titanium fused with iron over the present magnesium. The result, some beautiful orange/red/gold formations. I’ve attempted to upload a few pictures of some pieces I have… hopefully they are accessible.
