A striking spodumene var. kunzite crystal from Afghanistan, showing a beautiful soft lilac to pink hue with impressive internal luminosity. The crystal displays strong vertical striations along its length, adding texture and depth to its elegant prismatic form. The termination is naturally etched, giving it a rugged and character-rich appearance that reflects its natural growth history. While there are natural cleavages on two sides, they do not detract from the overall aesthetics. A fine and recently acquired specimen that presents very well.
