Item Description

This is a wonderfully aesthetic thumbnail specimen of Rose Quartz from a world-famous locality. Crystallized Rose Quartz is not common in the mineral world, and this piece is a showy and eye-catching specimen featuring a beautiful slightly curving group of bright pink crystals sitting on additional Rose Quartz crystal matrix. The aesthetics make it a great treasure. This specimen is over 40 years old and is from Rich Kosnar's personal collection. Rich acquired the piece directly in Brazil in the 1970s.
