Two sharp, glassy calcite rhombs, one on each side, are aesthetically embedded in sculptural, unusual sintered-looking matrix from the Tsumeb Mine. The larger rhomb, 5.1 cm across, is mostly colorless and partially transparent. Both ends are included with a bit of brick-red hematite and the top of the crystal is framed with a bit of green duftite. The 2.9 cm rhomb on the backside is water-clear and is distinctively color-zoned. The edges are colorless and the interior is included with beautiful, brick-red hematite.
