An elegant, arborescent, dramatic crystal cluster just rising up off a well-trimmed matrix - it is rare to find such large crystals in any case (cluster or not), and on matrix even less common. The matrix has epidote and quartz in it, as well as rock. The copper is SOLIDLY embedded - this is no frail treelike growth, but a solidly connected cluster. The cluster overall is flattish, mostly about 1 cm thick; though smaller fat crystals poke out in a few places. I think that for the price in particular, this is a very good deal! Comes with custom lucite display base.
