Item Description

These lesser known Calcites are very easy to spot with their compressed hexagonal form and the "sandwich cookie" appearance consisting of white exteriors and gemmy colorless interiors. This piece is filled with Calcites, the largest measuring 8 mm sitting on purple and green Fluorite matrix. A little damage keeps it from being completely perfect, but it's a good overall piece for what it is.
