¿Por qué es masculine?

Cristal is masculine in Spanish because it derives from Latin "crystallum," which was itself borrowed from Greek "krystallos" (κρύσταλλος), and this Latin masculine noun retained its gender through the Romance language evolution. The word's gender follows the standard pattern of Latin nouns ending in "-um," which became masculine nouns in Spanish.
