Description

A fine specimen of nicely twinned, lustrous Calcite crystals on matrix. The Calcite itself is sharp edged and excellent defined with superb terminations. I admit, that Calcite is not a rarity at Landelies, but nicely twinned and pristine crystals like this were never frequent. A really good specimen. Ex Jacques Evlard Collection
