Description:A striking and beautiful complete all-around cluster of gemmy, highly lustrous, light amber, dogtooth calcite crystals from the Shimen Mine of China. Some of the faces have striking stepped-growth and the gemmy sidecar crystal is a real stunner! Nearly pristine, very trivial edgewear is noted, but is certainly not a detraction. The base has been sawed to enhance the display quality. Seldom available in this size and quality from this well-known locale. Valued at $300-500. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!
