Item Description
Wow! A huge, sculptural, display quality specimen of intergrown orange creedite balls. This is the largest Navidad orange creedite we have offered at auction. The balls are covered with gemmy, burnt-orange to colorless crystals to about 1.5 cm. This is a dramatic, two-sided specimen with only three points of attachment, two on the base. For the extravagantly large size, there are very few broken crystals noted! This is a visually impactful and impressive large piece. It displays very well from both sides. 4.9 pounds or 2.2 kilos. Fairly valued at $2000, for size and quality.
