Item Description
Chlorite encrusted, a striking pair of intergrown V-twin like titanite crystals is dramatically attached to the edge of the matrix mound of sparkly chlorite with smaller titanite crystals. The large titanites are typically twinned and the large doubly terminated crystal is 5.0 cm long. Impressive and sculptural Tormiq Alpine-type material from the Herb Obodda dealer stock. Valued by Herb at $500, over five years ago. The base has been sawed to enhance the display quality.
