Measuring 37 x 25 x 17 mm, the crystal shows the same mountain shape termination style seen on larger triphane pieces, a jagged, stepped formation rather than a single clean point, just scaled down to a size that fits easily in hand or in a smaller display case.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDespite the smaller size, the color and clarity hold up well, with good luster and a natural yellow tone running through the crystal. For someone building a collection focused on crystal habit and termination style rather than sheer weight, a compact piece like this one offers the same formation characteristics as a much larger specimen, just at a price point that's easier to justify for a first triphane purchase or as an addition alongside other small format pieces.
