Item Description
WATER CLEAR to gemmy, sharp, icy blue-grey crystals of Celestine from the classic depsoit in Madagascar. The luster is very good on the best crystals, and they have a tapered habit, which is not terribly common in my experience with this locality. The largest crystal measures 2.4 cm. Sakoany celestines are considered to be amongst the finest in the world.
