Item Description

A dramatic and very aesthetic combination specimen. A lustrous, striated, jet-black, trigonal schorl crystal with a matte termination is beautifully set against a band of white cleavelandite and a striking, flat-lying, gemmy, transparent to translucent quartz crystal. A very fine, complete all-around specimen with two excellent display views. The contacting on the back of the schorl is out-of-sight. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. Classic and excellent combination material from this less well-known locale.
