Item Description
An impressive and classic combination from the Barroca Grande Mine at renowned Panasqueira. Highly lustrous, striated, jet-black tabular, parallel-growth ferberite prisms have striking stepped-growth and fabulous crenellated-style terminations. The preferential coating on the front and rich coating on the back of densely intergrown tiny, translucent olive-green siderite disks adds pizzazz to this fine combination from the Orellana Collection and was formerly in the Oliete Collection.
