A choice, "contrasty" miniature from Tiger comprised of colorless to blue leadhillite crystals and teal blue caledonite. Leadhillite occurs as very prominent tight to slightly open clusters of flashy, pseudo-orthorhombic, very distinct crystals to 3mm over much of the top of the specimen. Slender, prismatic, striated caledonite crystals to 3 mm encircle and somewhat penetrate the leadhillite crystals along the periphery. A fantastic small miniature (or toenail-sized) specimen that sparkles with color! Ex. William Pinch Collection with label.
