DVH 44g Astrophyllite Specimen for Wirewrap Druzy Fireworks Stone 45x38x17 (5007)
A natural specimen that could be wirewrapped and set in jewelry. Measurements in the title. A freeform shape with sparkling golden crystals. Astrophyllite gets its name, from the Greek words astron meaning "star" and phyllon meaning "leaf." Some people also refer to this as "fireworks stone" because of the appearance of the glistening needles. Among the minerals it is associated with that may be included in the matrix are feldspar, mica, titanite, zircon, nepheline, and aegirine. A beautiful and unusual stone. The material I cut this from is genuine astrophyllite in matrix from Russia. I have both cabochons and focal beads in this material in my store.
You can see examples of them in this video....
