This cabinet display specimen features many sharp, well-formed, attractive triclinic prisms measuring up to 1.0 cm scattered over the underlying matrix. Many of the crystals are pristine, but there are some contacted crystals here and there. A fine and aesthetic specimen of from this famous locality.
