A crystal or geometric form that lacks distinct faces or clearly defined edges and surfaces.
From Greek 'an-' (without) + 'hedron' (face). A technical term in mineralogy and crystallography for crystals without geometric definition.
An anhedron is basically a crystal that gave up trying to be geometrically perfect—it's the difference between a beautifully formed diamond and a rough nugget!
