About the Item

Specimen Type: Vorobyevite Weight: 25 grams Dimension: H: 4.2 x W: 2.5 x D: 2.2 cm Origin: Deo Darrah, Khash and Kuran Wa Munjan District, Badakhshan Province, Afghanistan Treatment: None This natural specimen of rare Vorobyevite crystals from Afghanistan showcases exceptional clarity, vibrant color, and striking form. Vorobyevite, a rare beryl variety, is prized for its distinctive pastel shades often icy blue to pale green—created by trace alkali elements. In this piece, sharp, well-defined crystals rest elegantly on their original matrix, enhancing both stability and visual contrast. The matrix highlights the crystals’ translucence and delicate internal structures, making the specimen particularly appealing for display. Sourced from mountainous Afghan deposits known for producing fine-quality minerals, this Vorobyevite specimen embodies both rarity and geological beauty. Its balanced composition, natural aesthetics, and collectible significance make it a standout addition for mineral enthusiasts and serious collectors alike.
