A beautiful olmiite specimen from the famous NChwaning Mines, South Africa. It features very sharp olmiite crystals in radial sprays growing on both sides of calcite base. They have an elegant posture and very well defined shape. The olmiite crystals are glassy lustrous with pleasing pinkish-cream color and strong sparkling appearance. Water clear, colorless, lustrous and strongly sparkling calcite crystals give a good contrast. It displays attractively on both sides. In excellent condition – some small side contacts. On acrylic base.

Fascinating!
