Item Description

An amazing and very rare large specimen from a very obscure Idaho locale. Intergrown, translucent, light yellowish-brown chalcedony stalactites have the striking look of a writhing mass of worms. Certainly interesting and most strange form for this possibly unique piece. Ex Bob Trimingham Collection. According to Bob's label, it's from the Paul F. Patchick Collection, who purchased the piece in Idaho in 1967. A must for the locality or species collector.
