The most common habit of Uvarovite is in tiny lustrous crystals coating a matrix. This drusy form of Uvarovite, from the most famous deposit of this mineral in Russia, sparkles with an intense deep green color, and is occasionally polished in this form together with the matrix. Crystals large enough to be faceted and with transparency are extremely rare and are faceted only for collectors.
