5.6 x 4.6 x 3.2 cm. Exquisite piece composed of lovely pink plumose sprays of Manganoan calcite that are bundled like wheat sheaves. Delicate and elegant, the pics really do show the specimen well. But to hold it in your hand…In excellent condition with the attachment point at the base. The miner did a fabulous job getting this out. Superb and aesthetic.
