1503474
location:
Floristella Mine, Valguarnera, Enna Province, Sicily, Italy
description:
The top side of a 23.0 x 16.0 x 5.0 cm matrix is covered by glistening colorless translucent prismatic crystals of celestine measuring to 1.5 cm in size. Small yellow crystallized native sulfur scattered throughout. There is minimal damage present, but overall I think this is in very good condition considering the overall size of the piece and number of crystals present. Good Sicilian classic.
