Item Description

A small cabinet sized specimen of bladed, purple-red color Erythrite crystals on matrix. The largest crystal measures 6 mm long. A good reference specimen with nice aesthetics. Classic material, and the best of these specimens have unmatched color in the mineral world. Erythrite would not be a very well known species were it not for the amazing pieces from Morocco. From an old East Coast collection, and comes with a label from the famous and recently deceased mineral dealer, Larry Conklin.
