A lovely specimen here with an overall rounded form, the specimen is made up of rhombic crystals which have grown together tightly to form a very nice rounded piece with good lustre and a very nice pink colour. On the underside of the specimen, there are remnants of Goethite. There are a couple of abrasions on the sides here and there. The main display face is in good condition.
