A classic sceptered calcite specimen from Villabona, Asturias, Spain. The lustrous, translucent to preferentially frosted on one side, scalenohedron is abundantly overgrown with rhombohedral calcites in parallel stair-stepped growth, only on the preferentially frosted side. The scalenohedron is capped by a transparent and lustrous, to preferentially frosted, 2.1 cm complex rhombohedral calcite crystal, which makes for a superb sceptered calcite specimen.
