This is just the sort of gemological oddity that we delight in offering. While a faceted Calcite is only mildly interesting most of the time, one from Florida takes on a different story. These crystals are found embedded with fossilized clam shells, and while the specimens themselves are not uncommon, we thought it just too fascinating not to offer a stone cut from the Calcite of one of these. The classic color for these (do a quick search for Florida Calcite Clam Shells and you’ll see) and an excellent large size. A great story stone!
