Item Description

A rare and striking large combination specimen from recent Chinese finds. A water-clear, doubly terminated, floater quartz crystal is included with a nests of graphite (carbon) flecks. The fluid inclusions and interior veils add character. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only trivial edge wear on both tips. This is one of the more dramatic such examples we have seen of this rare quartz with graphite inclusions.
