This is one of the most beautiful English clacites I have ever seen! Several crystals in diverging growth form a calcite specimen of breathtaking aesthetics. All of the crystals are highly lustrous and transparent, and tiny hematite inclusions add a splendid reddish-pink hue. Ex U. Burchard and Walter Knobloch collections.
