Item Description

Delicate, and very aesthetic, cluster of three 'florets' of Kutnahorite from the famous Wessels Mine. Each crystal is radial in habit, a lovely pink color, and about 1.7 cm long. The way the three are attached creates a beautiful, aesthetic thumbnail. Really, one of the coolest Kutnahorites I have seen. I would have to say that, for a THUMBNAIL sized specimen, this is just the best one for my tastes I have seen. It has the class and form of a larger piece's geometry, writ small.
