Item Description

Dramatic and sculptural large doubly terminated calcite from the famous Elmwood Mine. The striking multiple terminations and little side car at the base add dramatic pizzazz to this impressive two-sided piece. The gem terminations on both ends have the highly desirable golden-amber color with the crystal center being near colorless. A fantastic contrast. Complete all-around, this is a very fine two-sided example. The fantastic multiple terminations on one end have only a couple of very gently, hard-to-see cleaved tips. The two large terminations are essentially pristine, with the two contacts near the large tip certainly being only modest detractions. This is a classic, most colorful and desirable large two-sided Elmwood calcite. Valued at $1250-1500.
