Item Description
An outrageously excellent calcite on galena combination from this famous locale. A 6.7 cm pair of gemmy, translucent, parallel-growth, amber calcite scalenohedrons is dramatically set atop brilliant, metallic-gray, intergrown, galena cubes. The embedded galena on one side of the calcite really adds character to this superb, pristine, two-sided piece. This crazy-good Sweetwater piece displays beautifully without aid. Rare in this quality. Valued at $1000-1250.
