Item Description

Adorable thumbnail cluster of sharp, lustrous, arborescent, spinel-twinned, rich yellow gold "leaf" crystals from Venezuelan finds around 2007-2008. These were sold as palladian gold, but analysis to date is inconclusive. See http://www.mindat.org/mesg-55-118936.html. Irregardless, this is a superb and uncommon small gold with fabulous form!
