It is very difficult to find matrix kunzites - the vast majority are freestanding crystals. There are actually two crystals here - one is not complete and is buried in the matrix, but the othehr is complete, terminated, and well-exposed. It measures 5 cm across. Ex. Gene Meieran Collection. 13.8 x 2.6 x 1.1cm
