A classic and showy Tsumeb calcite varietal from the Rob Smith Collection. Dramatically stepped-faced, very glassy, flattened calcite rhombs are lightly tinted by hematite or are water-clear and colorless. The STRIKING, 4.3 cm, butterfly-like cluster of intergrown rhombs dominating one end of the mounded CABINET matrix is beautiful. A very attractive specimen.
