Phenakite specimens from Myanmar (Burma) are considered to be amongst the best in the world. Single crystals are the most prevalent on the market so this beauty on a microcline and smoky quartz matrix is much more rare. The gemmy and sharp focal crystal perched on top of the matrix measures 1.5(H) x 1(W) centimeters and is a perfect example of a twinned "drill-bit" termination - To top it off.. the phenakite is double terminated! It is safe to say this is a KILLER specimen to add to your collection!
