Cluster of large Dioptase crystals that flare out from base. Some crystals are contacted at top where they intergrew with the pocket wall, but there are other perfectly terminated crystals. Complete all around, translucent to transparent. I backlit a couple photos to show just how translucent the crystals are - WOW, very good for Dioptase.
