Item Description
This is from THE famous find of circa 2008 from the Masai tribal lands in Tanzania, and is one of the most perfect in this size that you could ask for. It is a super sharp, floater crystal, complete! Some faces are little darker due to inclusions within (that don't mar the viewing faces), but this is definitely a strong and saturated red-orange color. Later finds here had amore orange, or muted saturation to them. This is 21 grams. Old material! Valued $1500-2000
