Item Description

A striking, sculptural and excellent 3-dimensional combination from this famous Santa Eulalia mine. Water-clear, terminated, stacked, parallel-growth, gypsum blades are dramatically overgrown on goethite pinnacles. The smaller, straw-yellow, iron oxide-tinted selenites add color and pizzazz to this choice combination from the Bob Trimingham Collection. In fabulous shape overall, for such a soft mineral, nearly pristine.
