Description

A wonderful, highly lustrous crystal with amazing texture. The crystal is waterclear, nearly flawless! The contact at the lower backside consists of tiny, sharp faces, only bottom was on the rock. When you look at the first photo in the gallery, you can see an small area below the end-points at the left hand side - please note, that there is no damage - at this area the edge and a part of the faces consist of tiny sharp steps, all of them lustrous as well - in person a very nice detail. The specimen feature very high quality and the dimension is remarkable for the locality - generally crystals from Wolfskogel Mt. are rare and hard to obtain.
