Description

Very beautiful, smooth, sintered aragonite with strange 'lips'. Orange color obviously caused by iron-oxides. The surface has a matt-glossy surface, which causes problems for the camera, so all of the pictures are a little out of focus.
One minor spot (not even a real ding or scratch).
