A few weeks ago, one of our consignment clients came to our store excited about a new discovery in Chihuahua Mexico.
They are beautiful white dog tooth calcites.

Most dog tooth calcites are; red, brown, grey, or black.

Dog tooth calcites are named so by the crystal structures that resemble canine teeth.
