Description

Here we have a very attractive specimen from Vietnam. Several well formed gemmy spinel crystals are sitting on a snow white matrix.

The contrast between the bright white matrix and the intensely colored spinel crystals is striking. The crystals show a strong luster and a very vivid red coloration, making this a particularly appealing combination.
