This cabinet specimen is absolutely perfectly intact and features numerous arrow-shaped descloizite crystals of the highest quality. The metallically lustrous crystals display a beautiful wine-red color and flawless transparency when viewed in transmitted light.
This special collection comes from the personal private collection of the famous Austrian mineral dealer and collector Anton Berger and was most certainly acquired before 1929.
