This crystal has amazing size and quality for the locality, and at 4.5 cm tall should be considered quite significant. I have seen many crystals from here, but few of this size are in good condition. The luster is silky and quite appealing in person, better than in the photo. It is almost doubly-terminated, too; and save for a few small contacted areas at the very bottom of the crystal it would be. 5.3 x 4.2 x 3.4 cm
