Item Description

Stunning neon-green hyalite opal SW UV fluorescence on this striking and sculptural large combination with a RARE vug from recent finds in San Luis Potosi. The mounded, densely intergrown, very glassy, transparent to translucent spherical aggregates of hyalite opal or Opal-AN host a dramatic vug, the floor of which is lined with lustrous, porcelaneous, snow-white, botryoidal to worm-like Chalcedony. The vug opening is 4.0 cm across. Valued by the former dealer at $750. Certainly a highly unusual combination from the locale.
