Item Description
Dramatically sculptural terminated two-generation cave calcite from the famous Southwest Mine at Bisbee. The elongated translucent slightly curved blocky tan calcite rhomb "stalk" is crowned with diverging "petals" of colorless, wedge-shaped calcite rhombs. The smaller calcite rhombs cascading down the "stalk" are a fine accent. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only gentle bruising to the tips of a couple of "petals". An outstanding 360-degree cave calcite from the Dave Stoudt Arizona Collection and the Ted Bartels Collection. Ghostly white fluorescence.
