Item Description

A lovely, colorful and rare combination piece from the famous mines at Bisbee. Color-zoned malachite is strikingly included in variably-sized spherical aggregates of scintillating drusy quartz! Weird chemistry here for the colors and size of the aggregates! All on a matrix of massive cuprite. Undoubtably old-time, very rare combination material, but no proof. Ex Larry Conklin Collection.
