Item Description

A huge quartz cluster weighing as much as a small bowling ball, this is a dramatic specimen featuring a GEMMY, WATER CLEAR, FAT 6-inch crystal perched in a cluster with an 8-inch doubly terminated crystal, and others. I need to say there are dings, small damaged points on each quartz when you look closely. Nevertheless, it is impressive and impactful, and presents unusually well. I have to say there is damage, and it does admittedly matter to the price, but if this had no dings it would be going for some crazy high price of 5-10k. it is THAT impressive in person. As is, I still like it a lot, and value it around $1000. It impresses in person more than the pics convey - just trust us on this
