Item Description
An impressive, large diverging spray of very glassy, translucent, colorless celestine crystals resting on a bit of contrasting sulfur from the famous Machow Mine of Poland and the Dave Stoudt Collection. The glassy prisms are becoming gemmy at the sharp, chisel terminations. EXCELLENT material from this famous locale. For such rich coverage, there are only two or three crystals with trivial termination wear. Barely noticeable and certainly not detracting. Dave lived and worked in Poland for a number of years and bought the specimen there directly from miners who collected it. A very fine large 360-degree specimen. Valued $1000-1500. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
