Description

What a gorgeous group! All crystals show razor sharp termination and excellent luster. They are gemmy and water-clear with this typical sharp dark green phantom. The locality produced only a limited number of specimen, clefts were rare and in our days it is really hard to get a good one. The piece is developed as floater and self-standing in the positions shown on my photos. No significant damages to report and very showy 360°.
