Item Description

A beautiful, glassy modified tetrahedral/dodecahedral crystal group of very gemmy/transparent Sphalerite with beautiful internal golden and green colors. Overall, the piece is in good shape, despite a bit of edgewear. Rarely does one encounter such impressive clarity in Sphalerite from any world locality, and these are certainly some of the finest pieces out there for what they are.
