Item Description

A rich and outstanding large Michigan celestine specimen from this quarry. Glassy, water-clear spearpoints are attractively festooned on the limestone matrix. The interior appears to be pristine on this impressive large piece, with crystals reaching 4.0 cm. The bit of noted periphery wear has negligible impact to the very fine quality of this classic. Valued at $650 by the former dealer.
