Description

Looking like a rather unkept conifer from one side and an attractive herring bone copper from the other, this small minature displays good spinel twinning with lots of branching lateral crystallisation. The patina on this specimen is a vibrant whitish green ( sorry can not think of a name to discribe it better) colour which only further enhances its appeal.
