Item Description

Water-clear, gem-like, colorless calcite rhombs are beautifully accented with rust-red, hematite-tinted rhombs along several edges. The sparkly multitude of rhombs rests on a very nifty and classic boxwork of arborescent mottramite crystals. That's three spots of blue tack on the front.
