Item Description

Dozens of classic 'fans' of rich pink Kutnohorite comprise this quite attractive miniature. This particular habit has fine, acicular needles emanating from a common point and terminating in a flowerlike cone. The crystals are about 9 mm long and 4 mm wide at the top. These terminations have a superb, almost iridescent luster. The combination of all the crystal fans creates a virtual pink garden. Very delicate and aesthetic.
