DESCRIPTION
Wonderful arrangement of two double-terminated crystals! The crystals are very translucent, it doesn´t need backlight to expose the colors, also this photo was taken only under daylight. The upper part shows light green color and is even transparent. The end-points of the vertical crystal are pyramidal, the second one shows a light cap with inter-grown violet Lepidolite. All faces are very glossy, no significant damages to report.
