Item Description

A showy small cabinet specimen of four, connected intergrown balls of creedite and covered with gemmy, light-orange to colorless crystals from the more recent find of August, 2009. Crystal reach about 1.4 cm. Good creedites were rare and expensive from ANY locality, until these orange ones were found in Mexico. Suddenly, you could own a really fine creedite without selling your house to get it. This particular piece does have some broken crystals in one area, but is a modest detraction. The contacting on the base is out of sight. This is a very showy, puffball-like cluster of creedite crystals with multiple display views. The creedite crystals in this find are generally larger and gemmier, than earlier finds. STRIKING.
