An absolutely amazing specimen of rutile sprays shooting straight up from black crystal of hematite and decorated with opal-AN from Novo Horizonte, Bahia, Brazil. A beautiful star like piece with very elegant and distinct display on 360 degree. Rutile sprays consist of elongated crystals with a strong luster and light reflection combined with intense color. The colorless opal-AN covers the rutile and forms very attractive and sparkling irregular transparent tubes. In excellent condition. On acrylic base.
Overwhelming!
