Double peak termination Tanzanite crystal with good trichroic coloration. Good sized crystal of blue and purple colors when viewed on the sides with a great red color down the top. The red color even spills out the front when lit from beneath. This crystal stands out for its interesting form, good size, and a richer red color than most. Top, front, and sides perfect, backside has a natural contact where some graphite intergrew. Gemmy and bright, excellent crystal.
