Item Description
Here we have a lovely 2-piece Quartz-lined geode set from Las Choyas, Mexico featuring crystallized lilac Amethyst points with beautifully banded blue Agate around the periphery. One of the halves features a smoky brown colored columnar Calcite crystal measuring 2.9 cm for a nice touch. Both halves of the geode are polished showing a beautiful mixture of colors.
This set comes from the collection of Willard W. Wulff (1904-1998) of Colorado Springs, Colorado, a prominent figure and collector of Colorado minerals. Wulff was one of the founding members of the Colorado Springs Mineralogical Society in 1936. You can read Willard's bio on the Mineralogical Record website here ( http://www.minrec.org/labels.asp?colid=1528 ).
