I am told that this was one of the best pieces in the size range from the famous 1998 find here, which Horst Burkard brought out to Tucson of 1999. The crystals have superb luster, outstanding form, and literally leap off the contrasting matrix at the viewer, for dramatic effect. The color contrast is what makes the piece in part, but also the 3-dimensionality of the crystals leaping out at you. They are complete around, with only a few trivial contacts on the sides and with all major crystals completely pristine. This is a showpiece, no doubt about it!
