Item Description

A dramatic, large, two-sided combination from this famous locale and the Art Soregaroli Collection. A water-clear, doubly terminated (the basal termination broke and was totally rehealed with a myriad of small crystal tips), is preferentially coated on one side with clusters of lustrous, tan siderite disks and a few tan siderite epimorphs (hollow casts) after calcite rhombs. Impressive, nearly pristine combination maerial with only a trivial bit of bruising to the primary quartz termination and a broken quartz crystal noted amongst the siderites. Choice combination material.
