A showy and excellent cluster of lustrous, off-white, hoppered halite cubes from Santa Eulalia, Mexico. The large, 2.8 cm cube jauntily perched at the top of the specimen really sets this nice piece off. Ex Ed Ruggiero Collection, who purchased this piece in November, 1975. MUCH BETTER In PERSON, as the high luster made photography difficult. 8.4 x 6.5 x 6.0 cm
