Item Description
An aesthetic and excellent combination miniature from the famous Dallas Gem Mine. Textbook, indigo-blue benitoites are beautifully accented by a few neptunites on the starkly contrasting natrolite-covered serpentine matrix. These benitoites are gemmy and the large crystal is 9 mm. The large neptunite is 1.7 cm. Classic older material from the Dennis Mullane Collection.
