A SUPERB and AESTHETIC specimen of a vug of gemmy, iridescent, red crocoite blades to 1.6 cm sandwiched between hard gossan matrix from the Ruggiero Collection. Old-timers like this (1977) came on very firm matrix, unlike many of the newer ones, which have a very fragile matrix. This beautiful piece displays well both horizontally and vertically! 8.4 x 7.0 x 5.4 cm
