Epidote (classic material) (ex Brian Kosnar Collection)

Item Description

An attractive thumbnail sized specimen of the classic Epidote crystals from the world famous Knappenwand. A group of fine quality, sharp, rich golden-green color, prismatic, lustrous, crystals in parallel growth. Typically the specimens from the Knappenwand are too dark to see any color, but this piece is thin enough that some color actually shines through with good backlighting. Overall in great shape, with only a slight amount of roughness on the back. A good specimen of this well known material from this world-famous locality in the Austrian Alps. From the collection of Brian Kosnar.
