Item Description
A striking, beautiful and rare stalactitic calcite "flower" from an obscure Florida locale. The very glassy, transparent to translucent crystal is a pretty amber color and has striking "petals". There is a 3 mm hole in the top, where the precipitating fluids flowed. Very nifty and rare material from the John Barlow Collection # 2237. The older, former dealer label has a $250 price. valued $500
