Item Description
A "golden" sculptural pair of crystallized leaf gold thumbnails from this large and obscure gold mine. The leaf-shaped rich golds are composed of nifty octahedrons, spinel-twins and massive gold. Specimens are seldom available from this remote locale in high mountains. Probably an older piece from the 1980s or 90s. Both sides look great.
