Description/Interesting Notes:
An aesthetic, old time example of calcite from this historic locale!!! This specimen hosts a striking showing of complexly bladed
crystals of calcite that show intense red hematite inclusions!!! The crystals are present as highly complex,
modified blade-like rhombs that have bright glassy luster and marked translucence!!! The crystals exihibit showy, deep red
inclusions of microcrystalline hematite localized within their outer edges!!! The juxtaposed, blade like crystals combined
with the colorful, selective inclusions make for a very showy display indeed!!! This specimen is in magnificent condition
all around and displays gorgeously in person!!! This specimen retains an old label from the Nemesczeck Collection as well!!!
The pics hardly do it justice!!! Must be seen in person to be fully appreciated!!! This specimen is from the collection of
Tony Nikischer!!! We just acquired the 6000+ specimen PERSONAL collection of Tony Nikischer and there are going to be
some very exciting minerals to come in the upcoming days and weeks!!!
Good luck and be sure to check out my other exciting mineral auctions on ebay!!!
