A novelty from Munich 2007. Corundum crystal of sharp faces and edges, excellent terminations and good color. It shows different color shades depending of the type of light they receive, and has a marked zonation between red and blue-mauve. On the front crystal face you can see some curious concentric growth figures around a little triangular rhombohedron face. The matrix, very rich in Muscovite, also has abundant red growths of Pyrope (variety rhodolite).
