Description from the seller

Interesting lenticular Siderite centrogeode, with the back completely covered in microcrystalline Calcite, which partially coats the sides of the Siderite crystals on the front. The specimen has a beautiful hazelnut color, is intact and complete. It belonged to a Piemontese collection, as evidenced by the label.
