The Emerald crystals range from 0.5 to 1.4 cm long and vary from transparent to cloudy and translucent. The prism face are smooth with shallow natural etching and vary in lustre between greasy and glassy. A charming miniature of Emerald crystals from this classic locality in the Habach Valley of Austria.
