Item Description

An outstanding and aesthetic large floater cluster of intergrown gypsum rosettes from this less well-known locale. These beauties look just like flowers! Complete all-around and essentially pristine, with only the most trivial of edge wear. Exceptional for such a large and soft species! Very choice older material from the Bob Trimingham Collection (1982).
