Item Description
This specimen is about 40 years old and is from a find from the 1970's that was brought to the United States directly by Richard Kosnar, who spent a good amount of time at the Ilha claim. It features rich pink color prismatic hexagonal crystals with good form and gemminess. Some crystals are actually nealry WATER CLEAR, while others are translucent at best. For the most part, the piece has above average luster. It should be noted that several crystals are contacted, so it's not a damage free specimen. You don't see a lot of these on the market anymore, don't miss out!
