Description

A fantastic old-timer from this most famous classic locality! This huge crystal is free-standing, glossy, complete, end-pointed and shows this most appreciated intense saturation! On typical feldspat matrix with little bit of inter-grown smoky quartz. The matrix requires some cleaning to become white. In excellent condition, very aesthetic assemble! Really a spectacular piece in best color.
