Item Description
Pretty, pastel-pink, bladed manganoan calcite rhombs to 3.7 cm form a striking and excellent example of this varietal from the well-known Pachapaqui District of Peru. Essentially pristine, with only a bit of periphery wear. Classic material with fine sculptural form and nicely accented with sulfides.
