A very rare specimen! This huge crystal would be lartge for the species from ANY locallity, but particularly for this old Japanese classic locale it is of incredible size. I believe it to be twinned, as you can see from the unusual habit. There is some minor edge wear on the front, but given the size I think this is permissible. When backlit, it is translucent and looks more gemmy and red, as you can see in the right-hand photo.
