A large twinned gypsum crystal having the (rough) shape of a Star Trek Next Generation communicator badge. The style is typical for the locality, which was operated for gypsum from 1800 or before and now within (and under) urban Paris. Orange fluorescence under longwave UV (blacklight). Cleaved along both large faces but otherwise very nice condition. Add this to your collection? Captain Jean-Luc Picard (A Frenchman) would say "Make it so."
