Item Description
A striking and excellent large two-sided combination from this famed locale: Diverging sprays of impressive parallel-growth arsenopyrite blades have gorgeous iridescence from cascading chalcopyrite and are dramatically accented with sparkly calcite-coated siderite rhombs. This excellent piece displays well from three sides. The photos pretty much say it all except they cannot convey how bright this is, in person. Choice combination material from the Art Soregaroli Collection, circa 1970s or 1980s. An exceptional piece, valued $1000-1500
