Item Description

A cool looking combination from this famed mine and the Art Soregaroli Collection. Clusters of glassy, translucent calcite rhombs are very aesthetically draped on the tips of the intergrown, water-clear quatz points on the front and totally cover the back on this showy mounded 360-degree specimen. The sparkly iridescent tiny marcasite crystals in and on the quartz crystals are a super accent. Complete all-around, the frontal display view is pristine. Faint pink calcite fluorescence. Classic combination material.
