An excellent, sparkling, translucent, pale pink cluster of manganoan calcite crystals. This is classic for the locale, but rarely seen on the market today. With crystals to 3 cm, this is actually both an attractive piece and one with good sized crystals, and import. From the well-known Tucson collection of 40-year collector, Harold Urish.
