Looks like a basically dead carnation coral.

Where did you buy it? They didn't tell you what it was?  :)

Maybe not basically dead, but past the point of return to it's proper condition, if it is in fact a carnation. Here is a carnation that I had. I gave it up becuase I thought I wouldn't be able to keep it alive.

Yep..my first guess when I saw the picture was a dying carnation. I had a pink one as well. Probably only survived about hree months before it withered away.

I don't know the name.
But it isn't a dying carnation.
Some ugly leather... I owned one for a year up until a week ago.

I think it's an unhappy finger leather

I have never really seen a pink leather before. It could very well be an unhappy leather but my money is still on the carnation.

Maybe Devil's Hand leather?

looks like a leather needing more flow and light. slight pink color because it is closed, once it opens up it will be lighter color.
