Item Description
A superb and rare matrix thumbnail specimen of realgar, surely 20 years old or more, from this classic locality! This very aesthetic and 3-dimensional cluster is composed of well-defined crystals that have sharp crystal faces and excellent luster. The color is a rich deep red, and it transmits light very well. The termination of the large crystal is hoppered! Valued at $200-250. This is competition-quality material from this locale.
