Calcite - optically clear single crystal - ex. W. I. Johansson
Charcas
San Luis Potosi, Mexico
4.5 x 3.1 x 2.2 CM (miniature)
price: $300
Winter 2016-17
Slightly frosted on some faces, sharp, clear and in fine condition, this old specimen is from 1960s vintage finds at Charcas. Selective frosting adds to the visual interest and the form is textbook perfect. The termination shows a nice effect with the selected areas outlining a central hexagon. Nothing quite like these Calcites has since been found.
