Description

Nice example of whiteish to clear in part twinned selenite crystals on a thin matrix. Labeled to be from Wiesloch but not as typical as the Dammelwald pit crystals i am familiar with. Could be from the Segen Gottes base metal mine though. I would not rule out Eisleben area as provenance. Ex Muhl collection.
