This is a big, solid chunk of gorgeous gem variscite fromthe classic U.S. locality weighing in at 12.85 ounces (364 grams). Variscite is known from dozens of localitiesaround the world, but the Lucin locality is noted for outstanding variscite specimens, amongst the better piecesfrom the United States. While this specimen is suitable for lapidary,these pieces are becoming increasingly hard to come by and the aesthetics ofthis piece, notably the fine flow textures within the variscite and its sublimevariegate coloration, make for a unique addition to any mineral connoisseur’s collection.
