Zhejiang China Petal Calcite with Pyrite Rare Floral Crystal from Small Cavern Discovery
Weight (oz): 35.10
Dimensions (inches): 4.5 × 7 × 3
Hailing from a small cavern discovery in Zhejiang, China, this petal calcite formation is truly unique. Pure white, layered calcite “petals” gently wrap around sparkling pyrite inclusions, creating a stunning visual that captures nature’s delicate artistry. Under fluorescent lighting, the calcite may emit a gentle pinkish glow, adding yet another dimension to its charm. This rare floral crystal is increasingly difficult to find, as the cavern that produced such specimens is largely depleted. A must-have for collectors seeking little-known deposits, extraordinary textures, and the classic white-gold contrast of calcite and pyrite.
