Item Description

An impressive, old-time, large, solid and hefty goethite specimen from the famous Crystal Peak area of Colorado. The sculptural diverging sprays of terminated blades have high luster and striking variable hues of rich brown to mahogany brown and are dramatically accented with fabulous areas of gemmy, cherry-red translucence! This striking 360-degree specimen is fully terminated. Old-time specimens of this size, richness and quality are SELDOM on the market. Very choice material from the Dr. Barratt Phillips Collection.
