Description:An aesthetic and outstanding, floater aragonite crystal cluster from a famous Spanish locality. The pristine, lustrous, moderately translucent, doubly terminated crystals have a purplish core with glassy, sharp terminations and textbook pseudo-hexagonal form. Ex Joan Massague Collection and purchased in 1983 from Joan Montal. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON! This is more than representative, it is an exceptional example of a common material, seldom in this quality, from one of the pre-eminent collections of aesthetic Spanish classics
