Item Description

Water-clear, opposing quartz crystals are peppered with tiny pyrite crystals and are aesthetically nestled in the quartz matrix with a striking knob of brassy tiny pyritohedrons. The large quartz is 3.4 cm long. Most of the back is covered with clusters of tiny sparkly calcite rhombs. You barely notice the broken quartz point in the center of the piece. Classic and excellent combination material from this famed locale and the Art Soregaroli Collection.
