Description

To my taste the most beautiful and interesting rose quartz specimen I ever saw. The pink color could be stronger b( a little paler in nature), but the overall esthetics, the contrast to the dark green, celadonite-colored quartz base is incredibly beautiful. I count more than 40 pale pinkish rose quartz groups - almost like flower buds - spread all over the specimen. 

I hope this specimen will find a good space in a nice cabinet. If not it stays in mine.
