Twin crystals of pink Calcite. Translucent with more opaque white color zoning near the terminations that resembles a pair of eyes when looking at the top. The color zoning is apparent both from the side and looking down the termination faces. Undamaged. A small batch of these were available from one dealer at a Tucson show a couple years ago and I've not seen them since.
