Top Quality Florescent rare Afghanite under UV Light Rough- 35 g

atural Blue Afghanite Rough Lot – Fluorescent, Facet Grade – Badakhshan, Afghanistan – 35 Grams This attractive lot consists of rare natural rough Afghanite pieces from the Badakhshan mines of Afghanistan, with a total weight of 35 grams. Afghanite is an uncommon mineral that is highly appreciated by mineral collectors and gemstone enthusiasts. This lot is especially interesting because the pieces display a beautiful natural blue colour and show a colour change under ultraviolet (UV) light. The stones feature an attractive blue colour with impressive lustre and good transparency. Under UV light, the pieces change from their natural blue appearance to a yellow colour, as shown in the photographs. This distinctive fluorescent reaction makes the lot particularly appealing to collectors who appreciate unusual optical properties in natural minerals. All pieces in this lot are described as facet grade, offering potential for faceting into gemstones for rings, pendants, necklaces, and other jewellery designs. The suitability and final appearance of each faceted stone will depend on its individual clarity, inclusions, size, and cutting possibilities. The lot contains multiple rough pieces in different shapes and sizes, providing a selection of material for gemstone cutting and further examination. Their natural surfaces, blue colour, lustre, and UV fluorescence make them interesting both as lapidary material and as a rare addition to a mineral collection. Afghanite from Badakhshan, Afghanistan, is sought after by collectors interested in minerals from this well-known mineral-producing region. Finding a lot that combines an attractive blue colour with a noticeable fluorescent response makes this selection especially distinctive.
