Item Description
A stunning, 4.0 cm, gemmy, doubly terminated, complex octahedral Herkimer quartz "diamond" is beautifully perched atop matrix on this superb small cabinet from the well-known Middleville Quarry. Complete all-around and pristine, the very glassy and lustrous crystal is mostly water-clear. The rainbow effects from the refracted light and few interior veils add character. Matrix specimens are very uncommon, as the crystals generally come off of the hard siliceous matrix during collecting. This very fine matrix Herkimer "diamond" specimen displays well, as part of the base has been sawed. Definitely older material, with the 4.8 cm cloth label on the back.
