Quite big phenakite crystal discloses a sharp distinctive termination. Beside the typical twinning notches you can see twinning lines and crystal striation. The transparency of this specimen is pretty gemmy and the inclusions seem to be muscovite or other mica crystals. There is small blemish on the upper prism side which seems to be former attachment point to the matrix, nevertheless a quite big and gemmy piece!
