Item Description
A weird, older geode from Utah and the Richard Hauck Quartz Collection. An ovid geode lined with chalcedony in a rhyolite matrix is filled with numerous quartz crystals to 1.5 cm curiously hollowed out in their centers. The crystals essentially consist of trigonal prisms, hollow along their length. The piece probably dates to the 1950s or 60s.
