Description

Fine rock crystal combo with rutile ('angel hair') inclusions. The crystal with the inclusions is double-terminated. Interesting natural etching on the back (not pictured).

The old label lists 'Meylan' as the locality, but I think this is a mistake. But the exact locality must be somewhere in the Isére area.
