Description

A set of three small but very fine anatase crystals from Innergeschloss near Matra. The crystals are well formed and show a nice, metallic luster. One of the crystals is even set on matrix, adding additional interest to the group. A well-matched and attractive trio that nicely represents this classic Alpine occurrence.
