Although relatively inexpensive, this is one of my visual favoites for its dramatic, medusa-like spray of stalactites shooting off the "head" at base. It has a few MINOR broken tips, hence the lower price (otherwise $2000-ish), but they are not immediately visible in your first impression of the piece, or unless you look from above. Its just...really impressive, even though not perfect. This piece has a bushlike 3-dimensionality that is really striking and different from others here.
