Item Description

A rich covering of pretty pastel-pink bladed rhodochrosite rosettes is dramatically accented with randomly oriented quartz points. The quartz points, to 1.5 cm, rise up out of the quartz and sulfide matrix on this showy and classic combination from this famous mine. The primary quartz crystals are pristine. From the late 1980s - early 1990s finds and has several fine display views. Ex Joe Lobell Collection.
