Description

A dramatic group of sharp, lustrous epidote fans with quartz crystals. The epidote fans are comprised of distinct individual crystals, as seen particularly at the terminations – and the epidote crystal terminations on this piece are so glossy they look wet. The quartz crystals grew after the epidote, such that there are epidotes partially included the quartz. In excellent condition – a few incomplete small epidotes along the bottom edge, but not highly the piece is spectacular calibre for this find.
