Description

A portion of septaria populated by textbook bipyramidal Herkimer quartz crystals of exceptional clarity and lustre, laid on a dark matrix and thus having a striking esthetic. 

These specimens are true French and European classics, and have become tough to get ahold of over the years. The specific one comes from the former Lehmann collection (CH), dated back to the late 80s-early 90s.

An excellent miniature.
