Description

Japanese law twins are generally very rare. In fact they should called French law twins, as they were discovered in 1829 by a German mineralogist at La Gardette in France. Caused by the mayor discoveries on Honshu island around 1900 they got their name. Meanwhile samples from Nepal are probably the best. But now there is this unique discovery on Madagascar - Japanse law twins with razor sharp terminated, highly lustrous and intense purple Amethyst zepters on it. unique world-wide, only a very limited number - almost January now, but this is for sure one of the high-lights of 2026.
