A stunning miniature featuring two robust, thick, 3-dimensional crystals that are as sharp and as pink as you can ask for. The largest is 2 cm. They perch smartly on a well-trimmed sulfide matrix. Killer color, Killer size, perfect competition quality aesthetics! This is as good for the size as I could imagine, a and is not only a classic, but one with pedigree. It comes from the noted collection of Dr. Dick Webster, one of the founders of plastic surgery and a major mineral collector several decades ago. This collection just surfaced through his children, to the market, with a friend of mine.
