Item Description
A classic and excellent Panasqueira combination miniature. A gorgeous, gemmy, 1.7 cm, color-zoned, olive-green, textbook hexagonal, fluorapatite crystal is aesthetically attached to a glassy, transparent to translucent, sharply terminated, quartz crystal. The termination is pristine. One side of the back and the basal termination of the quartz are contacted, but have no damage, per se. A striking and choice specimen from this renowned locale.
