Item Description

This very fine thumbnail is composed of a 3-dimensional cluster of freestanding Alunite blades. The largest of the crystals is slightly over 1 cm across, and the sheer density of the blades makes this a significant thumbnail. They are tan and translucent, and by and large are in very good condition. An Alunite this good is a rare thing. Originally priced at $795 from Keith Williams dealership, and super rarified
