Fuchsite Sphere - 40cm

A fuchsite sphere of exceptional collector's size. The polished surface displays a characteristic green shimmer with fine micro-reflections on the crystal lamellae.

Fuchsite is a chromium-bearing mica variety, a subtype of muscovite. Its characteristic green color arises from chromium substitutions in the crystal lattice. The layered silicate structure creates the typical shimmering effect.

Material of sphere-cutting quality in this block size is a premium selection due to deposit conditions. Fuchsite spheres are usually much smaller; the pronounced gallery dimension is the top feature here.

With every turn, the micro-reflections travel across the polished surface. A collector's item with gemmologically high-quality fuchsite classification and gallery block size.
