Item Description
Iridescent, highly lustrous, peacock-blue and magenta, covellite blades richly fill the well-placed vug atop quartz-rich sulfide matrix on this very showy and classic, old-timer from the George Elling Collection. The tiny quartz and pyrite crystals are a nice accent. There is even covellite on the bottom of the piece.
