Description:A neat two-sided specimen: one side hosts the wonderful glassy strawberry red rhodo crystals typical of Sweet Home. Some of the rhombs are impaled by quartz xtals which are found all over the piece, as well. The backside of the piece hosts small, gemmy, lustrous purple fluorite cubes. There is damage on this piece but it is nevertheless attractive and many major crystals are OK. Valued $500 as the crystals are smallish and the photos make them look better than they are...but its still a cute piece.
