Item Description

A super neat and and very aesthetic epidote on amethyst specimen from the Chinese find of a few years ago. Highly lustrous, wreathes and drapes of olive-green epidote blades are beautifully scattered on the cluster of glassy, translucent, amethyst crystals. The one epidote cluster atop the amethyst crystal looks like a green plume on a helmet! The amethyst crystals are included with sparkly, hematite microcrystals. An exceptional combination specimen from the Ed David Collection with very little damage. Valued at $750. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
