In recent years the Malkhan pegmatites have produced many translucent, to opaque, deep, red, elbaites. However, this translucent crystal abounds with unusual colors like golden amber, hints of golden green, along with the traditional rose-red highlights. The red hue is more visible down the c axis while the lighter colors show up best when viewed from the side. Very lovely and unusual!
