A long, thin single crystal of Marialite which is hollow down its length. The color is a light, straw, yellow (less of a reddish hint than in the pictures). The crystal is transparent with a high glassy luster. There are striations the length of the crystal which somewhat clouds the transparency.  The termination is hollow with a hopper growth pattern.
 The specimen is in good condition but there are a couple interanal cleaves and two small places of breakage.
