Item Description

A fairly significant Adamite specimen with robust, splaying, lemon-yellow crystals to over an inch in size! This piece consists of multiple clusters of perfectly formed Adamite crystals growing in at least three divergent sprays. It has numerous, glassy, translucent crystals with gemmy tips that have a stunning yellow color with just a hint of green. The largest crystal is 2 cm in length. Crystals are very well-formed with no damage to any of the crystals. This is an aesthetic miniature with just the right amount of iron and manganese oxides to provide some contrast. It is a more rare style compared to the usual, and probably came out in the 1960s-1970s.
