Item Description

Naica is a noted locality for excellent specimens of anhydrite. This is an dramatic, sculptural, two-sided CABINET cluster of stout, pearly, translucent, grey-blue anhydrite lathes. The central column has a broken tip, but this remains a showy large example of the species and noted locale. Fairly common 10 or 20 years ago, they are now much less so. This large piece displays well from several different angles. Ex Consie Prince dealer stock. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
