Item Description
Some of the world's best, if not the best, gypsum crystals have come from the Naica District of Mexico. This visually striking and sculptural CABINET specimen consists of intergrown, parallel-growth, water-clear, gem-like, doubly terminated, spear-point crystals. The crystals have gorgeous, twin-like striations on the sloped, side faces. Complete-all-around and nearly pristine, with only trivial edgewear. An excellent example of the species and famous locale.
