A spectacular Aragonite cluster from Spain consisting of pleasing, light to medium lilac colored crystals delicately stacked one upon the other. The transparent to translucent, pseudohexagonal, sixling twins are very lustrous for the species and the locality and lack the often distracting clay inclusions which makes this piece all the more engaging! Clusters are rare and these came out after some very careful digging, a few years ago. Note that the crystals are either repaired or stabilized. The largest Aragonite crystal measure 3.1 cm in length. An incredibly artistic cabinet Aragonite!
