Description

Really a fantastic crystal - please note that there were no lamps or spots to expose the colors - the translucency for such a large crystal is exceptional! And the color on the photos is still not as good as in person! It is electirc blue, the very best saturation you ever can imagine - a promise to each buyer: you will be surprised in the most positive way how crazy good it really is. The back-side is not extracted or broken - it is healed and consists of uncountable tiny steps.
