Item Description

A wonderful big thumbnail specimen of flashy, good sized, sharp, well-formed, purplish-pink crystals of the very desirable cobaltoan variety of Calcite. One of the most classic localities for the material, which has produced arguably some of the best specimens in the world. Virtually undamaged on the display side, save the periphery where it was removed from the pocket wall. The largest crystal measures 7 mm across.
