Item Description

This is a shocking example of high quality for the normally boring species, Clinochlore. A perfect flower of crystals, just about an inch in size, sits dramatically on a well trimmed matrix. This was a rare specimen from a small find brought out years ago by Spirifer, Tomasz Praszkier. It is hard to value aesthetic rarities like this, but it really is a perfect miniature and is so good, that it is almost impossible to identify by sight. We had to look it up, we will admit!
