Item Description
A rare and excellent large dolomite plate from this historic Italian locale. Saddle-shaped rhombs are rare from this locale and this showy plate is covered with sharp, lustrous, tan, rhombs to 3.0 cm. Iridescent chalcopyrite crystals peppered about and a bench of glassy quartz points on one side are nifty accents. A pristine, 360-degree piece. Uncommon combination material. Ex Unversity of Modena and Giancarlo Fioravanti Collections.
