A very nice and showy doubly terminated gypsum crystal from Bulgaria, rare for the locale. Most of this striking, waxy luster, water-clear, parallel-growth crystal is colorless, but one termination is faintly yellow. Complete-all-around and pristine. I have never seen another gypsum from Bulgaria like this. Ex. National Museum of Natural History - Sofia.
