Item Description

Two, intergrown, quartz scepters, to 2.8 cm, look like guard towers and dramatically stand over a CABINET plate covered with sea-green, fluorite octahedrons and smaller, spiky quartz crystals on this showy and excellent specimen from the famous Willaim Wise Mine. None of the smaller quartzes are sceptered and scepters are very uncommon from the Wise Mine. Essentially pristine. Choice material from the Schlichter Collection. Super purple fluorescence on the fluorites.
