Item Description

Click here for a video of this specimen

A cute and sculptural two-sided pair of glassy, translucent, oxide-tinted calcite rhomb stalactites from one of the mines at the West Camp of famed Santa Eulalia. The calcites are strikingly and preferentially accented with RARE clusters of black to brown Goethite botryoids. Complete all-around and pristine, including the terminations of the stalactites. A choice, rare and excellent Santa Eulalia combination from the Tom Wolfe Calcite Collection, probably dating to the 1970s.
