Chrysoberyl Fishtail Twin Crystal from Lac Alaotra, Madagascar

Gem:  Chrysoberyl Weight:  1.34 ct. Dimensions:  12.6 x 10.1 x 1.4 mm Clarity:  N/A - Very gemmy and transparent  Origin:  Lac Alaotra, Madagascar Treatments:  None Comments: I love these!!  I am very happy to add this example to the shop.  I try to pick these up whenever I can afford to.  These cyclically twinned specimens can have up to 6 twins, or possibly more, around a centerpoint.  This one has two crystals back to back.  There is a classic 'suture' line, and a V at the top, where the two crystals diverge from the center line. This gem thumbnail is in great shape, with no visible damage.  Sunny yellow color bursts from this piece.
