We just put this specimen of realgar and quartz out onto the website for an upcoming auction.
Recovered in circa 2000 just before the "big find" of realgar at Baia Sprie, this specimen displays wonderful contrast between the white and greys of the associated quartz matrix and the bright crimsom-red hightlights of the realgar.
An almost perfect match for the colour styles of e-Rocks. Although this is accidental, the original colour concept for the e-Rocks site back in 2006 was also found in nature, on the African Grey Parrot!
