M511 Celestite

$140.00

Here’s something we haven’t seen before a very rare Celestite Orange host rock from Boi Pau (Kyr) Turkmenia, Russia.  This unique specimen measures 2 1/2″ x 2 7/8″ x 1 5/8″ and is loaded with crystals pointing in all directions creating a dazzling display. Take note of the photo, it’s been held up in customs since 1994 and we only just now were able to acquire it. Very cool.
