Item Description

Gemmy, nearly colorless, hexagonal apatite crystals are preferentially embedded in the sides of the aesthetic miniature cluster of glassy, translucent pretty rose-red rhodochrosite rhombs from the renowned Sweet Home Mine. The large rhomb is 2.0 cm on the diagonal and this piece has several fine display views. One face of the large rhomb is cleaved, but is certainly only a modest detraction to this classic combination cutie. Yellow apatite fluorescence. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock.
