This is a superb, very dramatic and 3-dimensional crystal cluster, rare from Alaska! It has a brightness to it, and a robust, slightly rounded crystal shape, really unlike any California material when seen in person. The crystals are fat and curvy, spiralling up like an upside down rams horn from the base, to a slightly hoppered termination composed of multiple crystals around a central cavity. It is a very IMPRESSIVE thumbnail specimen, quite unusual from the norm. I purchased this at a show, from an old prospector who found this in Alaska in the 1970s. 23 grams
