Item Description

The good supply of minerals from the Congo should not blind you to the value of the best specimens. This beautiful hand sized display piece features wonderful intense pink, sharp, gemmy, lustrous Cobaltoan Calcite rhombohedra assoicated with minor forest green sparkling "sprays" of Malachite on matrix. Great quality, hard to find on the market right now, and certainly worthwhile for any collector. The largest rhomb measures 4 mm.
