While Scapolite is a well-known mineral to collectors, finding a specimen that balances pristine transparency with a natural matrix attachment is a significant rarity. Sourced from the prestigious mines of Afghanistan, this 59ct crystal displays an exceptional level of internal clarity, allowing light to pass through its prismatic body with ease.
The crystal exhibits a sharp, four-sided tetragonal habit, finished with clean terminations and a glassy luster. Its delicate champagne-to-colorless hue is beautifully accented by the rugged, organic matrix it sits upon. This is a 100% natural, untreated specimen that perfectly illustrates the sophisticated "clean" look of Afghan minerals. Whether for a specialized rare-species collection or a display of gem crystals, this piece stands out for its elegance and geological perfection.
