Item Description
A sculptural two-sided combination from this well-known Polish open pit sulfur mine. Glassy, translucent, parallel-growth celestine crystals with striking multiple sharks teeth terminations are aesthetically attached to the two-sided "wall" of two-toned calcite scalenohedrons. The calcites are gemmy golden-yellow on one side and translucent straw-yellow on the other side. Interesting chemistry here! Choice two-sided material from the Joe Lobell Collection.
