A UNIQUE and DRAMATIC herringbone-shaped CABINET cluster of lustrous and translucent, light brown gypsum blades. The cluster looks like a Christmas tree and the blades reach 6.7 cm. The rich dusting of tiny, pastel-pink, second-generation gypsum crystals are a beautiful accent. Very nearly pristine, with only a few lightly bruised termination edges. This super showy piece hails from the well-known South Australian locality of Sinclairs Gap Lake. One of the best evaporite gypsums, that I have seen from any locality.
