Item Description

Aptly named Crazy Lace Agate is well-known from this mountain range in Chihuahua, Mexico. Both sides of the sculptural large curved section of a large geode feature striking crazy patterns of densely banded, multi-hued agate. SW UV light reveals an unexpected BONUS! Some of the banding is composed of Hyalite Opal, that fluoresces neon-green. 514 grams or 1.1 pounds mass. Ex Dr. Peter Megaw Collection, noted Mexico specialist, collector, dealer and author. Valued at $250 on one of his past labels for exchange/deaccession. Quality and classic large agate from the locale.
