Item Description

A beautiful, hexagonal, partially gemmy, layered, lustrous, classic pigeons blood-red, ruby crystal is visible on both sides of this showy and exellent miniature. It is embedded in crystallized, blocky albite as a nice contrast. One side is well-terminated, with the other side being contacted. Highly representative of the species and locale. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
