This spectacular showpiece was probably trimmed from the inside of a giant geode, and considered more valuable as a large cabinet specimen than as a huge geode. It features an 11-inch band of fabulous calcite crystals, to 4.5 cm in height, bursting in all directions and running right through the middle of this large plate of very gemmy, razor-sharp and glass-lustered amethyst crystals.
