Item Description

An excellent and uncommon pseudomorph from this obscure Moroccan locale. Sparkly quartz has pseudomorphed a large barite blade and is dramatically accented with quartz stalactites. It looks remarkably like a fish with a tail. A rare and nifty two-sided piece with most of the attachment points being on the back. Very sculptural. Comes with a label from well-known French dealer Alain Carion.
