Item Description

Lee County, Iowa is a very well-known US geode locality. Intergrown rosettes of lustrous, iron oxide-tinted, saddle-shaped dolomite rhombs are aesthetically clustered in the sculptural geode lined with sparkly drusy quartz. From an East Coast collection and comes with a torn and faded century-old label. RARE, excellent and desirable old-time combination material. Very seldom on the market today.
