Item Description
A very attractive example of this rarely seen material. If you collect thumbnails, Canadian minerals or even just Celestine, this is a great piece to pick up. The crystal is virtually WATER CLEAR throughout the majority of piece, but has a nearly "fuzzy" looking termination which is actually dozens of tiny "teeth"-like crystal points at the top. The piece is not 100% complete, but it has a lovely blue color, and is still very attractive and really unusual for the locality and the species in general in my mind.
