banded Halite (old - classic locale)

Item Description

A STUNNING, OLD-TIME halite (salt) crystal from a CLASSIC German locality - Stassfurt, Saxony-Anhalt. The FABULOUS azure-blue color banding is UNREAL! RARELY do you find halite in a form other than cubes or octahedrons, so this very sharp clear tabular crystal is truly a gem in its own right aside from being gemmy per se. It is sharper and even more lustrous in person. COMPLETE ALL AROUND. WOW!
