Item Description

A few beautiful, sharp, compressed scalenohedral, colorless very gemmy Calcite crystals are aesthetically set on matrix. The main crystal is very glassy and limpid and measures 4.0 cm across. Minor roughness keeps the piece from being 100% perfect, but it's still showy and good quality. An excellent and representative specimen of this find, where the locality in Hubei Province was not divulged for some time.
