Description

Exceptional rock crystal on matrix from the Swiss Alps. This awesome specimen features several well developed crystals on a small piece of matrix. The crystals have razor-sharp defined edges and perfectly pointed tips. The most desirable feature is definitely the golden yellow coating of the crystals which is nearly all over, except for the main crystal at which the coating is slowly fading away to the tip. There are even rainbow colours shimmering at the front face of the main crystal which makes this specimen even more special.
