2.2"D Cobalto Calcite
Sphere Rare Pink Gemstone Ball - Congo, sr24
|
- Dale always
experiments making spheres from any mineral that falls in his hands
and it is large enough to work with. Cobalto calcite is one of
them.
- One usually
finds cobalto calcite crystals in a very thin layer on top or a
rock matrix but this one is all cobalto calcite
- Many
previous trials with cobalto did not work very well for Dale. The
point in making a cobalto calcite sphere is to somehow retain the
crystals since their massive form is pretty but not as
impressive.
- Well, this
time it worked; VOILA!
- The
workmanship of the sphere is outstanding and the color of the
cystals, nested in a couple of geode-like vugs, is just
beautiful.
- This cobalto
calcite sphere is a rare and outstanding collector's
item!
- Approximate
weight: 9 oz
- Approximate
