Item Description

For my taste, these amazing golden gypsum (variety selenite) crystals are best of species, for the sharp form combined with color and gemminess. They came out from Peru over 15 years ago, in the early 2000s, and are now rare collector's items. They have such a visual impact, they really stand out from others of this species and are now hard to find today. This specimen features absolutely transparent windowpane crystals, twinned, to 3.6 cm, standing dramatically on nice matrix - a rare quality and style of display for this material. Valued $1500-plus.
