Item Description

Tiny, sparkly, gemmy pistachio-green epidote needles strikingly and richly cover the large undulating quartz needle matrix on this impressive and excellent specimen from the small 2007 at this obscure Peru mine. This fine piece is seriously enhanced by the nifty casts of epidote needles after dissolved calcite rhombs. Choice and rare style combination material from the Matioli Collection.
