Item Description

A striking and aesthetic cluster of light blue-gray, lustrous and translucent celestine from this uncommon Mexican locale. The largest crystal measures 4 cm in length and they all have a solid blue color. Mexican celestine specimens are just not seen that often, come to think of it, except for the white crystals from Tule. And BLUE ones from this locale, are rare. It looks like fine Sakoany, Madagascar material and displays very well from either side. Ex Marty Zinn Collection #8412 and Dave Stoudt Collection # 664.
