Item Description

A dramatic, very attractive, two-sided, LARGE CABINET calcite specimen from recent finds at Santa Eulalia, Mexico. Sharp, lustrous, and translucent, dogtooth calcite crystals are partially coated with hematite and have striking, clay-stained, internal, hematite phantoms. Crystals reach 9.8 cm on this piece! ALL of the many calcites in the interior are pristine. Periphery wear is noted, but this remains an impressive large, two-sided plate.
