Item Description

Gorgeous parallel-growth sprays of supremely iridesent magenta erythrite blades are aestheticaly clustered on matrix on this showy and excellent miniature from the well-known 1960s finds at this famous cobalt mining district. The blades reach about 1.8 cm and the field of tiny quartz points on one side of this spray is a nifty accent. The scattered bruising and cleaving are certainly only modest detractions to this very colorful, classic, highly representative example. Ex Wes Parker Collection.
