Description

This piece hosts part of the wall of a crystal cavity full of pink cobaltoan calcite crystals. These calcite crystals are a sharp, lustrous and are a beautiful colour. The crystals in the centre of the specimen are in excellent condition, with just a few chips visible on close examination. At the outer edges some crystals are missing. This piece has been trimmed using a saw to reduce the matrix – one cut leaving a flat surface on the underside.

A beautiful specimen at an excellent price for one of these.
