Item Description
Five intergrown, sharp, water-clear, facet-like, Herkimer quartz "diamonds" form an exquisite 360-degree small cabinet. This is a rare and essentially pristine floater, with only two small barely noticeable bruises noted. The large crystal is 3.3 cm and four of the five crystals are doubly terminated. This super cutie has multiple display views (both on and off the base) and comes with a custom-made baked clay base. Classic and outstanding quartz from the Dr. Ed David Collection. Ed was Science Advisor to President Nixon and assembled several world-class collections. Valued at $1000.
