Calcite w/ Mottramite

Item Description

A spectacular, amazingly sculptural and colorful large two-sided calcite crystal crust from renowned Tsumeb. The striking elongated, boot-shaped piece is comprised of very glassy colorless calcite rhombs, to 1.5 cm, that are strikingly coated-with or infused-with bright olive-green mottramite. Specimens of this quality, richness and size are RARE and are seldom available. Tsumeb is famed for calcite quality and diversity and this is an outstanding large combination example. From an East Coast collection. Valued at $1750 and worth it.
