A beautiful, exceptionally lustrous and well formed witherite cluster from this famous locale, one of the world's two great localities for the species (which is generally rare in large crystals). This probably dates to the late 1960s-early 1980s. It is unusually aesthetic, as most of these tend towards clunkiness.
