Item Description

Striking, beautiful, brilliant golden starbursts of rutile needles are epitaxially set on starkly contrasting hematite plates on this dramatic and very aesthetic two-sided specimen from Novo Horizonte. These are certainly one of the more eye-catching combination specimens in the Mineral Kingdom. An exceptional and classic small cabinet from the Ken Roberts Collection.
