Description/Interesting Notes:

A magnificent, old time example of witherite from this classic locality!!! This specimen consists of a handsome cluster of complex, compound crystals of witherite!!! The witherite crystals are present as broad, hexagonal prisms that have showy, lustrous, compound faces!!! This specimen likely dates back nearly a century or more however it is in magnificent condition all around!!! The pictures don't even come close to capturing just how showy this old time beauty is in person!!! The crystals are well-defined, lustrous, and translucent!!! This is a KILLER English witherite!!! This specimen retains old labels from the Parkinson and Sensel collections as well!!! Don't miss out on this valuable classic!!! The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!! STAY TUNED!!!
