Calcite w/ Malachite inclusions (Graeme Family Coll.)

Item Description

A fabulous and colorful calcite cave helectite from the well-known Holbrook Mine at famed Bisbee. Very glassy, translucent, intergrown calcite rhombs have fantastic form and are beautifully colored by malachite inclusions. Individual sharp end rhombs reach 1.2 cm and the piece is highlighted by the surreal curved "stalk" with an attachment at the end and by the otherworldly complete loop at the base accented with the large rhombs. The piece has an outstanding provenance having been in the Reference Collection of the ultimate Bisbee specialists - the Graeme Family. The piece has multiple exotic display possibilities.
