Item Description

Intergrown pinwheels of very glassy and lustrous, elongated, yellow-green, adamite crystals form an elegant, two-sided specimen from the famed Mina Ojuela. This cutie displays beautifully from either side and is pristine. Excellent, older material from the Consie Prince Collection. Interestingly, this piece does not fluoresce, due to the iron content. Good examples of this old classic are now hard to come by
