Description

Outstanding miniature featuring a dark green, textbook elongated epidote crystal proudly standing on top of a crystalline epidote matrix. The main crystal has a great glassy lustre and has a very thin partial epimorph of white quartz on its tip, with good lustre. When backlit, it features a great transparency.

The specimen is a lucky purchase from a Swiss collector in 2019, and it is dated back to the late 90s.
One of my best Austrian epidotes to date!
