Condition

Uncommon for the location, a well-formed fine open display specimen of prismatic Aragonite crystals, measuring to 3.8 cm tall and to over 2 cm wide, from 'pania Dolina in Slovakia. The hexagonal crystals have a good, yet subdued, glassy to waxy lustre with gemmy to clouded-white prisms. Some of the flat pinacoidal terminations are dusted in a thin sucrosic layer of micro-crystalline Aragonite with a matt lustre. Without doubt, a first-class showy group of excellently crystallised Aragonite from 'pania Dolina.
