Item Description

RARE LOCALITY SEPCIMEN - A sculptural plate of sparkling, glassy, ice-blue, celestine crystals from the famous Annabel Lee Mine. The gem-like crystals have textbook chisel terminations and look like small topaz crystals. Very nearly pristine with only a few, barely noticeable broken crystals and a trivial bit of periphery wear. Classic, highly representative and rich material from this noted mine. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
