AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

really oddly shaped, damage-free sphalerite crystal floater displaying an uncommon elongated morphology with well-developed etching surfaces developed all over it, giving it an unusual and artificial look to it. which is only further accentuated thanks to its rich colored gem interior, which features a wide gamut of intense reds, oranges, and yellows appearing irregularly distributed all along this piece. There is no damage to be reported.
