A remarkable, sharp, isolated Hackmanite (Sodalite) crystal, the quality of which I have not often seen. It is actually complete all around, nicely perched and exposed so the backside is revealed as well. The light lavender-colored crystal is 1.3 cm across, gemmy to translucent, very lustrous, and sharp. This well formed dodecahedron has beveled edges which add greatly to the interest, as does a lovely rose fluorescence. An excellent thumbnail example.
