Item Description
A striking and weird looking specimen from Germany. Cobaltoan calcite is very rare from Bauhaus, Hesse. A shocking, 3.7 cm, globular/botryoidal mass of translucent, vivid pink cobaltoan calcite is well-placed on the matrix. A little "horn" highlights this amazing piece. Very rare on the market. The color is comparable to Congo, Moroccan or Mexican material.
