Item Description
A beautiful, corsage-like plate of intergrown, sprays of gorgeous, lustrous, neon-blue, cavansite blades from the famous Wagholi Quarry. This is an excellent miniature for its own aesthetics and for the crystalography shown: Bladed cavansite of this variety is far less-common, than the cavansite balls. The vivid color of the blades is also way above average for the locale. Even the back looks great. I have a standing order to buy any from one of my major sources there. Valued $500-700.
