Dramatic, gemmy blue crystals of Celestite with glassy luster. These are common as geodes, but it's difficult to get good undamaged specimens from the geodes and they are therefore uncommon. There is a flat lying 5cm crystal and the main vertical crystal rises 3.5cm above the others. All the crystals are undamaged and like transparent glass. Highly showy and bright.
