Item Description

A classic combination specimen from the Pachapaqui District of Peru of a 1.0 cm, metallic-bright, tetrahedrite beautifully set amongst two generations of glassy, transparent to translucent quartz spires and needles. A few broken quartz crystals are barely noticeable in the forest of crystals, which is sparkling and displayable overall. Ex Joan Massague Collection.
