Item Description

A very aesthetic, flower bouquet-shaped, copper crystal cluster from the well-known Mt. Elliott Mine of Australia. A very long spinel-twin forms the "stalk", to which an arborescent bouquet of spinel-twins and tetrahexahedral crystals are attached. Excellent and uncommon, two-sided material from this noted locale. All of the crystals are sharply formed.
