Well here you get a light pink taaffeite crystal. This crystal shows partially a hexagonal shape good transparency and on top of it the crystal has a cat’s eye when looked with a drop of silicon on the surface. The whole crystal seems to be intact and a tiny face was polished for measuring the refractive indices. A great piece with good transparency bit color and chatoyance!
