Item Description

An attractive cabinet sized association specimen from Taxco, Mexico featuring tiny resinous/pearly beige colored rhombs of Dolomite which are coating lilac colored ("Amethystine") Quartz. Additionally, there is a 1.1 cm, highly modified, very gemmy, pale lavender colored Fluorite crystal and a few dark brown-black Sphalerite crystals that can be seen near the central area of the specimen. No major damage I can find. The contrast of the Dolomite against the Quartz makes for a very pleasing effect.
Ex Les Presmyk / De Natura specimen.
