Item Description

Natural citrine quartz crystals of good quality are uncommon worldwide. This impressive, doubly terminated, floater crystal is the most scuptural piece from the small lot we obtained, with the two sidecar crystals. The transparent crystals have rich golden-amber color with lightly frosted faces and some stepped-growth. Both sidecar crystals are doubly terminated and both have facinating tapered lower terminations. Complete all-around and in good shape, overall. The primary termination has trivial bruising and a ding along one edge. The sidecar crystals have trivial (upper) to minimal edge wear (lower). The basal termination has only trivial edge wear. Excellent and facinating material. This new find from Zambia elevates the species.
