A superb specimen from the now-closed Gordonsville, featuring two large intergrown crystals. The larger is 4.4 cm along the edge. The crystals are damage-free (flat natural contact face on the back), and are glowing and translucent, with a purple cast around the edges. Good Tennessee specimens are becoming NOTICEABLY harder to come by. 9 x 7 x 5 cm
