Description

An exceptional rarity - a sharp terminated crystal from this very rare and uncommon locality. The crystal shows a very intense color and all faces show mirror-like luster. A crystal in this dimension is crazy good fro the locality and even for international standards - not too much localities ever produced crystals in this dimension and quality. The dimensions of common crystals are around 1 or 1.5cm - but the particular one is up to 36mm across! It is framed with some smaller crystals alomg the edges of the specimen - they are on same high quality. No significamt damages to report!
