A wonderful, very large single scalenohedral crystal of Cobaltian Smithsonite. The light pink color is complimented by the translucent to transparent clarity and a superb luster. When backlit or toplit, it just glows! In person it is slightly more pink than beige. Damage free, and sharp in every respect. A terrific single. Purchased in 1975 from Bill Larson.
