Item Description
A sculptural miniature of two stacked clusters of flattened, spearpoint-shaped descloizite crystals. They look like christmas trees! Tiny sparkly calcite rhombs at the base of both sides are a nice accent. This showy and uncommon two-sided combination piece is from the famous Berg Aukas Mine, source of the world's finest examples of the species. Berg Aukas was discovered in 1913 and closed in 1978.
