Item Description

A classic example of the famous Naica Anhydrite crystals. This piece has the distinctive soft blue color with a pearly luster and a semi-"spray" like formation on one side, but the other side is loaded with dozens of tiny, jewel-like scalenohedra of Calcite. It's not 100% damage free, but it's well-crystallized and a great representation of this well-known material. There are no better blue Anhydrite crystals in the world than those from Naica. From the collection of Richard Rossi.
