A classic multicolored Afghan elbaite, of good size and excellent aesthetics. This glassy, translucent crystal with a green cap measures 3.5 x 3.5 x 7 cm and is perched against a small amount of feldspar matrix. It has a wide, glassy termination that is unusually good for such pieces (where the basal term is often dull). Hefty crystal at 156 grams. 7 x 4 x 4 cm
