Item Description

Exceptional aesthetic cluster of a rare style of included calcite found only in Tsumeb, in a single small pocket, with deep green mottramite included calcite showing a strange surreal patterning within. The cluster consists of a translucent sharp rhombohedral crystal with Mottramite inclusions on a pair of 7mm rhombohedral crystals with Mottramite inclusions. Unique find from the 1970s, we are told.
