New find of crystallized moonstone from Tanzania. Individual crystals to 1.3cm that display a satiny blue color when turned under lighting. This 'Schiller effect' of color is seen at different angles on the different crystals and was therefore not possible to catch in still photos and these are therefore more colorful and attractive in person. Moonstone crystals are rare! There are good crystals covering 4 sides of the specimen.
