Description

White to colorless, sharp calcite crystals with colorful inclusions in orange to brown colors. Very good glassy luster. Keeping in mind that this is calcite and probably a 19th century specimen, it is in good condition (only little and non-disturbing edge-wear) and has a quite aesthetical shape. From old Dr. Krantz stock, comes with old label without collection reference.
Weight: 500 grams
