A terrific and most elegant little miniature of three vertically orientated compound Quartz crystals, preferentially encrusted with delicate-pink crystalline Rhodochrosite, bluish-black Sphalerite and bronze-gold Chalcopyrite crystals. The translucent milky Quartz crystals are built from multiple smaller crystals, all with a fabulous glassy lustre. Mounted on a clear acrylic base, this is a lovely addition to any suit from Cavnic mine, in Maramure?, Romania.
