Doubly-terminated Faden Quartz

Item Description

This impressive, large, water-clear, tabular, quartz crystal is doubly terminated with two distinct faden or "string" lines clearly visible and crossing each other. The secondary spine of smaller crystals on one side really adds pazzazz. The larger crystals have beautiful beveled edges. This is a near floater cluster, with only a small attachment point at the base. Nearly pristine. The large crystal is pristine, and the scattered bruising to a few of the smaller crystals is barely noticeable. This is a fine example from the late 1990s find. Specimens of this size and quality disappeared very quickly.
