Item Description

Morganite and smoky quartz combination pieces are RARE from Pech. This exciting, aesthetic and unusual large piece is highlighted by the two, gemmy and lustrous, pretty pink, morganite crystals, to 3.0 cm, attached to one end and dramatically flanked by the two smokies. One of the smokies is a doubly terminated scepter (4.3 cm) and has a really nifty, 1.3 cm, gemmy morganite inset into the bifurcated termination! The two large smokies at the other end are in great shape, with just a trivial bit of bruising to one tip. Periphery wear on the side is noted, but has absolutely minimal impact to this spectacular piece, with can be strikingly displayed from either end. Value of such a fine rarity? We believe in the $2500-3000 range.
