Item Description

An amazlingly sculptural and RARE calcite combination from Dal'negorsk and the Cynthia Payne Calcite Collection. A beautiful, facet-like, colorless gem, flattened, complex scalenohedron is dramatically accented with rare for the locale fluorapophyllite crystals. The dramatic plume at the crest and prism faces on both sides of the crystal are coated with tiny, gemmy, sparkly fluorapophyllite crystals! RARE and excellent combination material from the 1st Sovietskiy Mine. Another reason why Dal'negorsk is considered one of the world's great calcite localities. Neon orange-pink fluorescence.
