Item Description
An artistically composed large calcite crystal cluster from the famous Elmwood Mine. A striking, 9.9 cm, doubly terminated and twinned calcite crystal is dramatically set on another large crystal and accented with smaller calcites. The translucent crystals have fine waxy luster frosted faces with highly desirable golden-yellow highlights beautifully accenting the light yellow bodies. This impressive crystal is nearly pristine, with only a small scuff in the middle of the crystal. The very sculptural piece displays well without aid, as the base of the lower crystal is cleaved. A fine piece of natural art. Classic and excellent Elmwood calcite valued at $750.
