It is a perfectly gem and highly colourful crystal, with green-blue 'indicolote' top and frank green 'verdelite' base. Notice the unusual shape at the top, with a sharp termination featuring pinacoidal faces and another flat termination, probably due to crystal growth inhibition or ancien fracture subsequently healed. Sparkling yellowish white mica coats the bottom and a side of the crystal. Ex coll. R. Eigenheer, selected directly in Brazil in the 1970's-80's.
