Item Description

Brilliant, red-brown bubbly goethite botryoids of this striking high quality are very uncommon from the famous mines at Santa Eulalia. The undulating surface of this sculptural large piece looks like frothy shining oil atop the massive goethite matrix. Rare and excellent large goethite from the Bob Trimingham Collection and formerly in the Al Torrey Collection, according to Bob's label.
