Item Description
A dense myriad of pretty pastel-pink, juicy, satin lustre, translucent flattened nailhead manganoan calcite rhombs are strikingly stacked in artistic pagodas on this very showy large 360-degree mounded specimen. Complete all-around and essentially, except for a trivial bit of basal periphery wear on one side. The base has been sawed to enhance the display. Another excellent large example of the fantastic number of outstanding calcite varietals, that China has produced. Super neon-orange/pink fluorescence! A sculptural large example with multiple display possibilities.
