A wonderful large spray of lustrous colorless transparent aragonite crystals coming off matrix. Typical of these slight cleaving is present as seen, this still in very good condition. An excellent old-time example for this area and species, the specimen comes with an antique label as shown at the end of the video. The specimen would date to the very early 20th century, if not the 19th century.
