Item Description
Celestine from the renowned Wessels Mine is quite rare, and this is certainly one of the more engaging specimens of Celestine that I have seen from this mine. The crystals of Celestine are in fans of rounded blades, they have a beautiful silver-blue color, and superb luster. The largest is about 1.2 cm across, and there are ten significant crystals on the specimen. A truly aesthetic and excellent piece.
