Item Description

Mooralla smoky quartz specimens are an Australian classic, but seldom reach the US in this striking, fine quality. This pristine floater is highlighted by the dramatic, jauntily angled, double reverse scepter at the base. It looks like a rocket ship! The sharp, very glassy, transparent to tranlucent crystals have nifty swirls of rich smoky color. Harold Urish traded this from an Australian lady in 1980.
