Item Description

A striking and very fine gem nested-twin calcite crystal is dramatically perched on spare matrix with salmon-pink stilbite blades on this exceptional 360-degree calcite from Nashik. The incredibly complex highly lustrous, limpid straw-yellow twin has both glass-clear and frosted faces, adding much pizzazz. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only a trivial bit of barely noticeable edge wear, this is an outstanding complex calcite twin from the Orellana Collection. Every turn presents a fasinating different perspective to this beauty. Nested twins of this style and quality are RARE from Nashik.
