Superb Halite (Leavitt and Byers Coll.)

Item Description

Many of the finest halite specimens around come from Poland. This is an amazing sculptural, CABINET, cluster of en-echelon, glassy, water-clear, halite cubes. Some of the cubes are hoppered and the stacking of the cubes is surreal. Essentially pristine, for such a soft mineral! Nearly a floater, with only one small point of attachment. This impressive piece looks great from either side and from several angles. From a closed salt mine. Ex Helen and Charles Leavitt and Bob Byers Collections.
