A dramatic, sculptural, FLOATER cluster that is terminated all around with glassy, yellow-colored crystals! A gemmy, calcite crystal, 12 cm in length, that is doubly-terminated and twinned, is perched on a cluster of other calcite crystals at the core. The large crystal has cognac colored terminations and a light yellow-golden color in the center that is not typical of Elmwood to my eye. All tips are very gemmy, and the overall effect of this piece is like that of a sculpture, 3-dimensional and engaging to the eyes.
