Item Description

Calcite crystals included with malachite are certainly one of the most sought-after and rare species in good quality from the famous mines at Bisbee. This rich and excellent specimen features striking translucent sculptural flower bulb-shaped calcite scalenohedrons nicely included with malachite on the gossan matrix covered with malachite. The crystals in the interior are nearly pristine, with only one spot of gentile bruising noted to one crystal. This is a very fine, aesthetic and old-time example of the desirable species from the Dave Stoudt Bisbee Collection. Come with a custom-made and engraved lucite base valued at $145, for free.
