Item Description
A pair of elegant "fan"-shaped groups of rich chrome green crystals of Epidote with sharp, lustrous faces and beautiful "chisel"-shaped terminations. When backlit, one can see that the crystals show excellent pleochroism as they change color from the rich green hue to a golden-yellow. A cool display piece of this classic material, despite a few nicks here and there. Minor associated Quartz make for a great touch.
