A gorgeous, unblemished cluster of doubly terminated, gemmy and lustrous, well-striated, lavender, kunzite crystals from recent Afghanistan finds. This is superb for its size, with the large crystal beautifully complimented by the two smaller ones. As usual for good kunzites, the C-axis shots give vivid, lavender color.
