Item Description

A striking and aesthetic, fan-like, diverging spray of very glassy, translucent, color-zoned tan celestine crystals highlighted by a field of sulphur at the base from the Machow Mine of Poland and the Dave Stoudt Collection # 632. The glassy prisms are lighter tan at the broad, sharp, chisel terminations of this fine 360-degree specimen. The celestines are nearly pristine, with only one gently bruised termination. Excellent combination material from this famous locale. Dave lived and worked in Poland for a number of years and bought the specimen at a Warsaw mineral show in November, 2000.
