This huge specimen is about sheer COLOR. It is INTENSELY colored, like the above, due to the thickness of the piece in part. It is a large specimen that displays dramatically, and features octos to 4 cm. It is in remarkably pristine condition on the display face itself, and even wrapping around the sides of the crystallized par twhich sits on massive fluorite below. The back is alos complete with the exception that there is a large crystal showing contacting in the middle of the backside. Next to it, however, is a conjoined pair of intergrown octos measuring 8 cm across! So the back is actually pretty impressive as well. It is impossible to show this in photos, as well as it displays so impactfully in person. I thought this to be, if you like size, one of the most dramatic of the find.
