Return to Gemstone Eggs
Here is a fabulous astrophyllite egg. It is large, and full of very sparkly bronze sprays on brown background and some nepheline (grayish/white mineral at the base of the egg).
The egg was made in Russia and it has great workmanship and polish. There is a naturally healed fracture with some light roughness in parts of it. The fracture does not affect the integrity of the egg. There is a slight uneven feel resulting from the different hardnesses of the matrix and sprays.
The egg weighs about 11.87 oz and it is 3.1″ tall and 1.93″ wide.
See more photos of this egg below.
The photos were taken outdoors in sunlight. The sparkly sprays show well indoors but best under a reading light.
Origin: Kola Peninsula, Russia.
