Deep amethyst phantom has formed near the termination. Good clarity and a shy water bubble add to the crystal's character.

A small very clear calcite crystal can be seen near the termination.

That little black star behind the phantom is a flake of iron oxide included inside the crystal. In the sun it reflects a deep blue colour.
