Item Description

Beautiful, compressed, gemmy and lustrous, rich golden amber Calcite crystals from the 2009 Chinese find. These caused quite a stir at the 2009 Munich Show and the 2010 Tucson Show. The main crystal is very glassy and limpid, and the sidecar crystal makes for a great accent. Good quality all around, obviously contacted on the base where it was removed from the pocket.
