Hi!

I just bought a piece of red mica at festival this past weekend.

I kept being drawn to its beautiful sparkling rose color.

I've found a bit about mica on the Web (dehydration, anti-nightmare, etc.), but I was wondering if anyone had used this crystal. It's fragile, but very beautiful!

That could be it, Rostie. Looks a bit like it.

The seller just had it listed as "red mica".

It looks a bit like a bunch of transparent, dark pink sequins (silly enough! :))

It's very pretty at any rate. Thanks for link!
