Description

This crystal represents a great rarity - violet, pink crystals from Pederneira are very rare and an exceptional rarity, they came only one time out of the so called "Purple Pocket". The dimension of this specimen is really remarkable - we showed a few crystals from this pocket, this one is our largest. Glossy all around, end-pointed, very good translucency (photos were done under daylight)!
