A delightful, gemmy pink crystal of Kunzite, the pink variety of Spodumene, from the Vanderberg mine in San Diego County, California. The crystal measures to 11 cm; is naturally etched and displays the characteristic trichroic colours when the prism is viewed from three orthogonal directions: pale pink, mid pink and intense pink from end-on. This fine cabinet specimen of gemmy Kunzite from the Vanderberg mine is superb for display.
