A superb and very aesthetic epidote on amethyst specimen from the Chinese find of a few years ago. Highly lustrous wreathes and drapes of olive-green epidote blades are beautifully scattered on the cluster of glassy, translucent, amethyst crystals. The one epidote cluster atop the amethyst crystal looks like a green plume on a helmet. The amethyst crystals are included with sparkly hematite microcrystals. An exceptional combination specimen from the Ed David Collection.
