Item Description
The beautiful orange Creedites from the Navidad Mine are some of the most iconic examples of the species ever found, and most certainly the largest and most displayable Creedites out there. In fact, before these specimens hit the market, it was quite difficult to get your hands on a good display quality specimen of Creedite from any locality. This piece features a pair of radial "sprays" consisting of dozens of very sharp, lustrous, well-formed glowing reddish-orange colored crystals of Creedite measuring up to 1.3 cm. Some of the crystals are nearly opaque, but very saturated in color, while others are quite gemmy, with a much softer orange hue. The piece is nearly a complete "floater" with only one small point of attachment on the reverse side. It is in otherwise superb condition, and looks fantastic from several angles. Excellent color, size and quality for these famous and now classic Creedite specimens. Priced in the inventory at $3,000.
