A distinctive, 3-dimensional small cabinet piece composed of hundreds, if not thousands, of lustrous, lemon-yellow Mimetite needles up to about 2-3 mm in length. The crystals have variable thickness and they occur as either individuals or in numerous flowery clusters. It is a very unique, attractive piece in overall appearance, and the specimen ranks up there among the best "pretty" Mimetites I have seen from here for color saturation, even though the crystals themselves are not very large. Comes with a custom base.
