Item Description
Sculptural mounded small cabinet "bulb" of pretty pastel-pink, elongated, translucent, densely intergrown, manganoan calcite prisms with satin luster, subtle stepped-growth termination faces from the 2011-2012 finds at the now well-known remote Huanggang deposit on Inner Mongolia. Nearly pristine, with only modest bruising on the center-right and lower-left, which are certainly minor detractions. Stunning neon-orange LW UV fluorescence. Now considered modern classics, they do not come out like this anymore. We found this in our old warehouse stashes from old purchases.
