A deeply-colored, sharply terminated, complete-all-around, pyramidal crystal with a very obvious tilt to it when seen from one side (you can see the second shot shows it curving up at the viewer) ! this bending is caused by repeated natural breaks and heals in situ, during growth, and is more common at the Himalaya than anywhere else. this is an excellent representation of the habit! 5.1 x 2.3 x 2.3 cm
