Item Description
A striking and beautiful, 3.0 cm wide, Japan-law twin quartz crystal is the focal point on this aesthetic and dense plate of porcupine quill-like, water-clear quartz points. The crystals have a nifty frosted look with subtle horizontal striations. The matrix is rubyjack sphalerite. A very fine, 360-degree piece with very few broken crystals, for all of the density. Classic and excellent quartz from the Alimon Mine heyday from the mid-1980s to early 90s. Ex Harold Urish Collection # 549.
