location:
Irai, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil
description: Beautiful large cabinet piece showing pearly transparent scalenohedral colorless crystals of calcite measuring to 2.5 cm in size across the front of a crystallized quartz matrix. There is slight cleaving present to some of the crystals, this still I think this in very fine condition. The color contrast alone makes this very attractive.
