Item Description
Sculptural and impressive large septarian nodule from Utah. Calcite filled septarian nodules from Muddy Creek are a US classic and are outstanding decorator pieces. Septarian nodules are concretions containing angular cavities or cracks, which are called "septaria". The striking large star-shaped shrinkage void in this dramatic large sawed and polished concretion is filled with straw-yellow dogtooth calcite crystals. Earlier generations of dark and light calcite line the vug and cracks, adding color and contrast. Yellow and brown fluorescence. 1648 grams or 3.6 pounds. Ex Dr. Barratt Phillips Collection. A very fine large and uncommon example, as calcite usually fills the voids in most septarians from here.
