Description

This is an outstanding, very uncommon specimen. A group of razor sharp crystals attched on matrix. The faces show mirror luster and excellent clarity. The color is very light, the inclusions make them look darker. It is like you look through glass, you can see the inclusions and the backside of the crystals through them. Hard to photograph, but really amazing and spectacular in person. No significant damages to report.
