This is an extremely rare quality of Astrophyllite and we have only once laid our hands on it of this quality. The golden needles are secure and it is a durable piece - which is unusual for astrophyllite as the needles are usually thin and flakey. You won’t find another piece like this - it is a true collector’s gem!
Astrophyllite is a very rare, brown to golden-yellow hydrous potassium iron titanium silicate mineral. Astrophyllite typically forms as bladed, radiating stellate aggregates. The name Astrophyllite is from Greek words astron meaning “star” and phyllon meaning “leaf”. Owing to its limited availability and high cost, astrophyllite is seldom seen in an ornamental capacity. It is sometimes used in jewellery where it is fashioned into cabochons. Found in cavities and fissures in unusual felsic igneous rocks, astrophyllite is associated with feldspar, mica, titanite, zircon,nepheline, and aegirine. Common impurities include magnesium, aluminium, calcium, zirconium, niobium, and tantalum. It was first discovered in 1854 at its type locality; Laven Island, Norway. Astrophyllite is found in a few scarce, remote localities: Mont-Saint-hilaire, Quebec, Canada; PikesPeak, Colorado, USA;Narsarsuk and Kangerdluarsuk, Greenland; Brevig, Norway; and the Kola Peninsula, Russia. Healing Properties Transformation, life change, major life change, protection, physic protection, third eye chakra, alcoholism, drug addition, anti-smoking, change bad paterns of behaviour, self love, self forgiveness, fidelity ,truth, honesty.

Fantastic Seller, will do business again.
Why are users outbidding themselves?
When a bid is placed, this is the maximum amount a user is willing to bid for the product. Our system will then automatically bid on that users behalf, incrementally increasing the bid to maintain their position as the highest bidder, up to the specified maximum.
When there is an icon indicating 'Auto Bid,' it means our system is actively placing bids for the user based on their maximum bid. This may appear as if users are outbidding themselves, but it's simply a result of the system updating the bid to reflect the users maximum limit.
