Cobaltoan Calcite (new find)

Item Description

A dramatic, beautiful and very unusual, two-sided, CABINET, cobaltoan calcite specimen from recent finds at Bou Azzer. Gorgeous, vivid pink, gemmy and lustrous, scalenohedrons cover the front of the sculptural, rounded piece. The sparkly scalenohedrons on the back side are much smaller and have a more lavender color. Most of the crystals actually have phantoms in their interiors! Facinating. For the size and coverage, this piece is in excellent condition. A trivial few broken crystals and periphery wear are noted on the front. The back is essentially pristine. Striking large material from Bou Azzer, that will brighten up any collection! Valued at $900
