71ct Terminated Spodumene Crystal from Afghanistan

This very cool spodumene crystal has a bluish-green color at the termination and goes almost colorless towards the base of the crystal. While it is an interesting color, I am almost certain it has been treated to enhance the color. That said, this is a collector piece for someone who is aware of this and is looking for a specimen to show this type of color in spodumene.  I am uncertain of the colors stability and it is very possible that it may fade over time. All that said, it is a very nice piece with good aesthetics. We consider this to be a Thumbnail (TN) sized specimen. 

• Locality: Laghman, Afghanistan
• Measurement: 33.7mm x 12.8mm x 13mm
• Weight: 71.45ct
• *Treatment: This piece has most likely been color enhanced. Stability of this color is unknown, so I highly recommend keeping it out of direct light, especially daylight.
