Description

Dramatic plate featuring colorful aggregates of pseudocubic dark green euchroite crystals from its type locality in Slovakia. Easily 30+ years old, the crystals are on relief and well defined on the metamorphic matrix. 
This is by far the largest specimen in my collection, which I am letting go only because it is too large for my actual size standards. Display material, acquired a few years ago from a renowned Italian dealer.
