A crystal with very well defined faces and edges and an excellent flattened rhombohedron termination. It has color zoning, dark greenish on the base and neatly pink in most of the rest of the crystal. On matrix, with Quartz crystals, Albite and an indeterminate feldspar, probably Orthoclase. We note the locality, where Rubellite of this quality is not common.
