Item Description
An aesthetic, sculptural and excellent combination from this famed Colorado locale. The 3-dimensional quartz matrix is capped with a beautiful dense field of glassy, lavender to blue fluorite cubes with scattered needle quartz crystals. The mid-section is composed entirely of lustrous, metallic-gray tetrahedrite crystals. The base is dramatically accented with a vug hosting striking elongated needle quartz crystals, to 2.0 cm and more beautiful bi-colored fluorite cubes, the largest being 5 mm. Scattered golden pyrites at the base are a fine accent. A classic, rich and very fine combination from this renowned locale. Purple fluoresence.
