Hello.

A strange pyrite from Niccioleta mine and other Tuscan quartzes, many of them with different scepter shape.
I hope you appreciate oddity more than aesthetics.

Warm greetings.

Hello Sante,

These remind me of hyperoleon. The milky part is on the top in hyperoleon.

Stay safe.

Hello, Don. How are you?

This is an interesting comparison. Your clinical eye saw what I couldn't without your suggestion. An idea for my sub-collection of "imaginative specimens". Thank you.

A specimen from Niccioleta mine and three quartzes so small that I'm almost ashamed to post them.

Best regards.
Sante
