Item Description
A beautiful light pink color "pagoda"-style crystal group of compressed, light pink, stacked Calcite "poker chip"-shaped rhombohedra creating a very attractive display specimen. These are great contemporary Chinese classics showing superb form with great displayability. Get these while you can becaus they won't last forever, and for the overall quality, this is a decent cabinet sized display piece of these very attractive Calcites. Despite a few rough spots, it's still a worthwhile Mn-Calcite from what is arguably the most productive mineral producing country of the last 10 years.
