Item Description

Juicy, gemmy, raspberry-red caps the unusally-shaped, pyramidal termination of this very glassy, well-striated beauty from an uncommon pegmatite in Madagascar. This complete all-around and pristine crystal has a dark, cherry-red, opaque body. The backlit photos highlight the gemminess and gorgeous color saturation. Ex Robert Whitmore Collection. 57 grams. MUCH BETTER IN PESON!
