Item Description

Natural citrine quartz crystals of good quality are uncommon worldwide. This striking CABINET piece is a doubly terminated floater with totally different looking terminations highlighted by the two nifty doubly terminated sidecar crystals. The lustrous, transparent, gemmy crystal has rich golden-amber color with stepped-growth and lightly frosted to etched faces. Complete all-around and essentially pristine. The crystal GLOWS when backit. The steep primary termination has only the most trivial of tip and edge wear. The multiple lower termination has very trivial bruising. Oustanding and facinating large material, with very exotic form. This new find from Zambia elevates the species.
