A flat, beautifully water clear gypsum crystal (not a cleavage), with a patch of opaque, crystalline and white celestine (first photo, lower right corner). Growth hillocks on one gypsum face add interest. An unusual association. Superb condition, especially considering that gypsum is soft (Mohs hardness 2).
