Item Description

A very showy and unusual two-sided combination from this noted locale. Intergrown, gemmy, fluorite cubes with nifty edge phantoms are aesthetically perched atop a large dolomite rhomb, which is, in turn coated with small lustrous, 2nd generation dolomite rhombs. Large dolomite rhombs coated with smaller rhombs are uncommon from here. Modest purple fluorescence.
