Description

Here we have a truly fantastic crystal cluster of diaspore from Turkey. The V shaped cluster is lustrous all over with sharp edges and terminations. The pictures are taken with different light sources to show the fantastic colour change effect these crystals have. This effect happens because of different absorbtion of light which is also called "transmission windows". So if a light source produces more green wavelengths, the crystal appears greenish, if another light sends more red wavelengths the crystal appears more red.
