Item Description

Some of the finest quality and diverse Quartz specimens in the world come from the Goboboseb Mountain in Namibia. Truly most of these specimens are labeled as Brandberg, but the actual pieces from from the mountain which is about 8 miles away from there. Here we have a classic Amethyst / Quartz / Smoky Quartz crystal from Brandberg. The piece has superb luster, with GREAT gemminess, plus it is about as sharp a Quartz crystal gets. The phantoms can be see when the piece is backlit to create a very pleasing internal appearance.
