Light yellow spheres which are aggregates of Calcite crystals on a contrasting dark, chocolate brown matrix. Classic material from a now closed quarry.

Condition: Very Good to Excellent

Flaws: A couple of the spheres on the edges of the specimen are incomplete. Although some of the spheres appear to have internal cracks, careful observation under magnification reveals these are due to the varying layers Calcite.
