Item Description

A very classy, intergrown pair of water-clear, doubly terminated smoky quartz crystals with fine smoky color from an unknown Swiss locality. Even the smaller, lighter crystal between the two is doubly terminated and pristine. This is an aesthetic, complete all-around and essentially pristine specimen. Three contacts are noted, but have no damage, per se. Infinitesimal termination wear is barely noticeable. Ex Howard Belsky Collection. A fine doubly terminated, floater cluster from his extensive Alpine quartz collection. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON. This is a small but subtle Alpine classic, and would be hard to replicate for its combination of qualities.
