Item Description

Without question, these are among the most distinctive, unique and interesting Calcite specimens out there. This piece comprises lustrous, translucent, layered "rosettes" (intergrown flattened rhombohedra) of Calcite with sharp faces which are included by silvery-grey Boulangerite. The attractive "twisted" form of the crystals is striking and the piece is complete on all sides. It can easily be displayed from several angles. The largest "rosette" measures 8 mm across
