Description

A wonderful smoky from a more uncommon locality. It is flawless and shows very dark, intense red-brown color. 4 sides are glossy and highly lustrous, two sides show a fantastic structure consisting on highly lustrous horizontal stripes and several other wonderful details. We tried to capture this with the camera, but it is even better in person. No significant damages to report, sawed at the bottom for better display.
