Description

Natural citrine is generally rare - and here we have a really wonderful sample. Sharp terminated, lustrous, intense yellow color and sharp internal zonings. The crystal also features a very interesting habit with additional faces - I show this on second and third photo in the galery. No significant damages to report (one minor imperfection at along one edge at the upper backside), bottom was on the rock.
