A gemmy and INTENSELY lilac-colored kunzite crystal with an unusual smoothed termination from Afghanistan. The C-axis views of this crystal really show the beautiful color. The back of the crystal is contacted but is totally out of view. This piece definitely has cutting rough value. The color is astonishingly deep! 4.4 x 2.6 x 2.2 cm
