Description

Really nice classic swedish specimen: A cluster of steep ivory tan beige calcite scalenohedrons from Kriuna, good size, nicely represenative. The tips are not perfect (tiny bites) but overall really good condition. Not often seen and a very good example from this famous mine! This specimen comes out of the special calcite collection of german collector Ingo Löffler who built up a great selection of calcites worldwide during the last decades including more rare localities. Ingo is changing his collection focus so you now have the opportunity to get some nice stuff. Comes with his label.
