Description

Very beautiful, double-terminated floater crystal. Nice yellow-green color. The way it was photographed it doesn't show the quality of the color (very good distribution throughout the whole crystal) and the clarity well. I think it's much better in nature, even though the colors come out a bit strong along the edges.
