This elegant "pencil" style is quite unusual for the Himalaya. The crystal is stunningly gemmy, really rare for the Himalaya, and doubly-terminated. There is one natural elongated indentation at one end where this crystal grew against another. Again, the remarkable gemminess and elongate pencil-thin form of this crystal make it very uncommon for the Himalaya. Weighs 5 grams.
