Description from the seller

A striking gem-quality crystal of triphane from Mawi Pegmatite, Laghman, showing a rich yellow-green color and excellent transparency. The crystal is elongated and glassy with smooth, lustrous faces and fine striations running along its length. The termination is sharp and partially etched, revealing internal zoning and reflective surfaces that glow under light. Subtle internal inclusions enhance its natural brilliance while maintaining impressive clarity and form.

This elegant spodumene crystal is highly aesthetic and well-proportioned, with vibrant color and strong internal reflections that make it visually captivating. Specimens like this from Mawi are admired for their clarity, balanced shape, and pure gemmy tone, making this piece a fine display and collector’s example of triphane from Afghanistan.
