A 3-dimensional and highly unusual group of large calcites from Cornwall! Surprisingly at first, calcite is quite rare from Cornwall, at least in surviving specimens. This is attractive and nearly pristine. It is complete 3-D, all around, 30 degrees. It was exchanged from the Bally Museum before its dissolution by dealer Simon Harrison, and then sold to collector Tim Sherburn a few years ago. It is one of a very FEW good Cornwall calcites I have ever seen of this size and aesthetics.
