Item Description

A luscious, sculptural, grape-purple cloud is beautifully set in this lustrous, transparent, doubly terminated, floater crystal. The exotic, bifurcated, basal termination is strikingly accented with two, doubly terminated, colorless quartz crystals, to 4.7 cm. Complete all-around and very nearly pristine. The upper termination of the smaller colorless quartz is dinged, and the basal termination in the larger crystal is gently bruised, but these are totally out-of-sight in the preferred display view. This is an exceptional, highly prized, 360-degree specimen from this noted locale and was in Charlie Key's personal collection. MUCH, MUCH BETTER IN PERSON!!!
