Item Description

A striking water-clear, gem, doubly terminated, triphane (yellow-green spodumene) from Pech with unusual form. This waxy luster crystal has a pleasing light yellow-green apple color. The crystal looks like a transparent green banner flying in a very stiff wind! The sharp, upper termination faces are etched/frosted termination and with the lower termination being strikingly crenelated! A fine, pristine, floater crystal from this noted locale. 28.89 carats or nearly 6 grams mass. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!
