Item Description
A good thumbnail sized specimen featuring excellent, bladed, uniquely purple-red color Erythrite crystals forming a beautiful fan-like "spray" with a few associated white rhombs of Dolomite. This is one of those two-sided specimens that looks nice from either direction. The largest Erythrite crystal measures 1.1 cm long. The piece has a couple of tiny contacts on the terminations of the crystals, but it's still a wonderful specimen with nice aesthetics. Classic material, and the best of these specimens come from Morocco, along with having an unmatched color in the mineral world.
