Description

Incredible single crystal from Morocco. This beauty shows a fantastic colour mix with a greenish to orange colour at the bottom, followed by an almost yellow area and then it fades into a smooth pink before it is turning cherry red at the top having a dark, almost black appearing, top termination. Additionally it is accompanied with a perfect crystallised feldspar crystal at the bottom.
