Description

This is a giant - before someone send me an enquiry - yes it is really 22cm tall. The faces are partly glossy and show a very attractive texture. The color is light grey to brown. The bottom is healed - so this is a floater! Little bit of matrix is inter-grown and gives a great visual impact to this huge crystal. No significant damages to report.
