Item Description

Dozens of sharp, pale pink well-formed, compressed rhombohedrons of Calcite with a selective deposition of sparkling, metallic, micro Pyrite around the perimeter of the crystals. These pieces came out a few years ago, and it seems that there is not much available on the market, so if you missed out on them, here's your chance to get one. Great shape overall, very little damage, and a great display piece for any collector.
