This is a gem of a crystal - deep red (with some colour zoning), sharp and lustrous. In excellent condition - a tiny nick to the left hand corner as photographed in the first photo - you don't notice it when admiring this piece. The crystal measures 1.2 cm across, by 1.8 cm long. Beautiful modification faces at the top corner. Truly a first class zircon miniature!
