Gemmy and lustrous, tabular, green uvites are richly and aesthetically scattered on and in the glassy, doubly terminated quartz crystal. The sidecar quartz "stalk" appears to be terminated, as there are tiny magnesite rhombs embedded in the termination. Both quartz terminations are multiples and the adjacent uvites are fascinating. Complete-all-around, nearly pristine and nearly a floater, there are only a couple of small points of attachment. A really interesting and aesthetic combination piece from the mid-1990s finds at Brumado, Brazil. Old dealer stock of Ken Roberts, who brought most of this find to market.
