Item Description
An impressive, large water-clear quartz crystal is strikingly included on three sides with a distinctive large phantom of iron oxides. The crystal has an unusually steep and complex termination. This showy and uncommon quartz is from an obscure Arkansas locale, but is well-known among locals for producing phantom quartz. Complete all-around and in great shape. The termination is pristine. Two lower sides are contacted from other crystals, but have very little actual damage. The prism and termination faces really enhance the optical effects of the large phantom! A very nifty large quartz specimen.
