Item Description

Exemplary, highly-lustrous blade of celestine with a very good attached calcite rhomb. The photos truly tell it all here. The twin terminations, water-clear crystal with striking internal cross-hatching and calcite rhomb really make this a memorable large piece. I remember when these were found in 1989, freak survivors of a pocket literally opened up by a wall blast and sent crashing to the quarry floor! Ex Marty Lewadny Collection. Valued at $400.
