Kyanite is generally seen as in the form of opaque whitish-blue crystals embedded in clunky quartz chunks. But occasionally, you get a deep blue, dramatic crystal such as this, perched dramatically on the matrix, to create a really fine collector specimen. This fine crystal is terminated on both ends! 5.5 x 3 x 2.5
