Item Description

A pristine, 5.3 cm, translucent, glassy, straw-yellow elongated nailhead spar calcite crystal with frosted faces dominates this sculptural jackstraw cluster of calcite crystals from the famous Sweetwater Mine. The crystal is strikingly enhanced by the subtle sharp scalenohedral phantom at the base. The secondary crystal is 4.8 cm long. Accessories include chalcopyrite and galena. The interior is pristine and the bit of periphery wear on one out-of-sight side is certainly only a modest detraction. Ex Chet Lemanski Collection and acquired in 1997. Classic combination calcite from the mine with several fine display views.
