Item Description
Rich green atacamite needles are concentrated in one area and scattered elsewhere in this fantastically sculptural, large, stunningly water-clear, euhedral, gypsum cleavage from the Lily Mine. some faces are present, some are present as cleaved faces that look good as far as display goes, but are cleaved. It has a striking biomorphic look! Specimens of this size and quality are very rare and highly desirable! Outstanding material from the Art Soregaroli Collection. Valued at $900-1200.
