Calcite

Nashik District, Maharashtra, India

9,7x6x4,5 cm. (main Calcite 2,2 cm. long)

Calcite on Calcite from India, but this piece can’t be considered a common specimen; transparent to translucent white twinned cubes of Calcite are crystallized on dog tooth brown Calcite crystals showing a second generation of small brown scalenohedral crystals for an umbelievable aesthetic effect. The surfaces are lustrous and the intense brown color is due to the strong presence of iron oxide inside. Custom base included.
