Lustrous, translucent, light amber, nailhead calcite crystals to 2.9 cm nicely set atop a sea-green, CABINET-SIZED cleavage fragment of massive fluorite with a bit of matrix. The calcites are good, darned good considering the locality; but the combination of such sharp crystals on this perch is killer! This showy piece hales from an uncommon Washington state locality at Keller. Excellent purple fluorescence. 10.5 x 7.6 x 5.2 cm
