Description

Common material from the locality is colorless, in best case it shows a touch of lavender - so only color is outstanding, dark blue with touch of violet. 1st and 4th photo of the galery are done with moderately backlit, all others under daylight. The most amazing indicator is the etching of faces, the texture is fantastic and there is nothing dull, all these structures are highly lustrous. Really a great piece! Undamaged, accept lower backside/bottom was on the rock.
