A stunning piece that is so glassy you look right through it, and the camera has trouble shooting it. It is so gemmy and clean, its the tops in the lot from this regard. It has classic ice-blue color, but it is somewhat weaker than others becaus eof the extraordinary transparency and gemminess which means few cracks to refract light and enhance the color. It is complete and pristine all around, fully terminated with sharp faces atop the core with etched sides. There is a small amount of lepidolite draping the bottom corner and the sides, in places - much prettier in person!
