An octahedral crystal, of good size, that is notable for its unusual color. At the same time the amount of the crystal that stands out from the marble matrix is significant and the crystal form is sharp with perfect faces and tips. Its brilliance adds that final touch. The small internal fracture near the tip, which you can only see given its transparency, does not detract from its high quality.
