Superb, lustrous floater of gem Selenite crystals. The Selenite from Willow Creek are easily some of the very finest in the world. This is a well crystallized, undamaged group that includes a doubly-terminated crystal 2.8cm wide. These also have a neat feature of showing an fluorescent hourglass shape under ultraviolet light. Out of an old collection and comes with a Mineral Classics label. Just a wonderful flower-like formation of transparent crystals, very nice!
