Item Description
Brucite is not all that common from Wessels, and the color of this piece is exceptional. This Brucite cluster, although it doesn not have well-defined crystal faces, does have cleavage surfaces to a full 1 cm, and excellent luster. The excellent translucence causes the very rich teal-blue color to simply glow, even under regular light. A good, eye-catching miniature.
