Item Description
Disc-shaped rhombs of lustrous, ivory colored calcite, to 4.5 cm across, are aesthetically perched like a "star" atop a pincushion matrix of lustrous and translucent, nearly colorless quartz crystals, to 2.5 cm in length.The calcite fluoresces a pretty pink hue. A very aesthetic and displayable calcite, just sitting up there on a flower of quartz! I have not seen one quite like this. valued $750-1000
