Item Description
A spectacular and rare large combination from the granitic rocks of the the La Cabrera pluton of Spain. Sharp orthclase crystals, such as the large tabular crystal sandwiched between the impressive large smoky quartz crystals are very uncommon from here. The dramatic large smoky dominates this sculptural combination. The glassy smokies are transparent to translucent and have variable color saturation. Complete all-around and essentially pristine, with only trivial bruising to the tip of the large smoky. Exceptional quality for such a large piece, that has 360-degree viewability. Very choice and rare large combination material from the Sanabria Collection.
