Item Description

A pretty, gemmy, lavender pink kunzite crystal from Afghanistan. The highly lustrous and well-striated flattened crystal has sharp, steep and lightly etched termination faces. The C-axis photos of this lovely crystal really highlight the intense color of this piece and the upper third of the crystal is water-clear. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only barely noticeable gentle cleaving on one edge near to termination. Ex Herb Obodda dealer stock. Herb valued this colorful crystal at $800, five or more years ago. 29 grams.
