This is a beautiful, impressive piece of exceptional internal brilliance and brightness. It almost GLOWS with internal fire. It is translucent to transparent in parts, but not throughout. Brazilianite is one of the more readily cleaveable gem crystals. The sides on this specimen, the lower and shorter faces to the left and right as shown, may be cleaved or it could just be a contact - it is hard to tell. Still, it displays very nicely, sits nicely, and is quite simply one of the most colorful examples, the most intensely colored, that I have seen in a long time.

And, it was obtained from Fred Pough who was largely responsible for the published description of the species and its nomenclature a few years later. The color is a lovely yellow, and the luster varies from pretty good on the sides to superbly lustrous and clear on the terminations and frontal faces. This is a very nice, and quite uncommonly fine, miniature. The contacted and etched back with minor muscovite attached actually adds sparkle to the crystal when lit. They were brought out by dealer Martin Ehrmann in the 1940s and remain to this day the standard by which contemporary brazilianites are held up to. This find is recounted in interesting detail in the excellent book by Dr. Peter Bancroft Gem and Crystal Treasures on pages 201-205. Cal Graeber obtained this piece in a laborious trade along with a small lot of others Fred conveniently found in his garage after all these years, around 1999 if I recall. I bought the lot and sold them at that time. As most folks who have dealt with Dr. Pough know, he rarely has any labels for his material (and those are usually scribbles on scraps of paper!) but I can vouch that it did come from his collection for what it is worth.

The crystal has an extraordinary amount of gemminess to it and could cut probably most of its specimen value in stones were we to butcher it. However, this is also a very rare thing for the find - most of these old brazilianites are rather one-sided for some reason, chopped off on one side or contacted flat on the back. This one, however, is complete ALL around and is a 360-degree crystal showing all faces, set atop a recessed inward-grown brazilianite pedestal and a bit of muscovite matrix. The lustre of the faces is teh best, extremley glassy and bright. The color intensity, a strong green-yellow hue, is totally unique in the mineral world and frankly superior to any brazilianite found since as far as I am concerned. This specimen came from the Kontrus collection, a collection that peaked in the 1950s and 1960s: As noted on the label, this piece was brought to him by the geat broker of the time, Martin Ehrmann.\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",614,{"id":388,"source_url":389,"license_code":254,"credit_html":390,"title":391,"description":385,"author":286,"original_width":392,"original_height":303},36963,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=10449414","Robert M.
