Item Description

Outstanding pair of overlapping spherical clusters of gemmy, cinnamon-colored Olmiite crystals on a layer of fine, crystalline Quartz. The luster of the Olmiite is excellent, and they sparkle like cinnamon iceballs. The largest of the clusters is about 1.8 cm across. A terrific, and aesthetic, specimen of Olmiite.
