Item Description

Gemlike, glassy, dipyramidal quartz crystals measuring up to 1.4 cm aesthetically cover the banded Hematite crust and are sprinkled with scintillating, jet-black hematite blades. This showy and excellent piece is from the famous Beckermet Mine in Cumbria. A trivial bit of termination / periphery ewear is noted, but certainly a modest detraction. Classic combination material from this noted locale. Ex. Wes Parker Collection.
