Item Description
Imposing and attractive large single Quartz crystal from the Goboboseb, Brandberg area of Namibia. This crystal is nearly 12 cm tall, and it is gemmy throughout. The slightly frosted faces allow one to appreciate not only the sharp crystal edges but the unusual curved geometry as well, which is very cool in and of itself. Very few dings and almost no edgewear. Aesthetic and unusual, as there have not been many large singles like this from the well-known quartz District here. For some reason, less clear quartz comes out than smokies and amethyst.. ex Charlie Key Collection
