Item Description
A beautiful full sized miniature display specimen from this locality right on the border with China. A trio of absolutely GEM / OPTIC GRADE Quartz crystals with beautiful steep terminations and absolutely shimmering luster and razor sharp faces are included with rich moss green Clinochlore ("Chlorite") at the base. There is a actually a tiny fourth crystal near the base, but it's not completely terminated. The three main crystals are the focus here with their superior clarity and gorgeous form. The base of two of the crystals have small separation marks where they were clearly growing against other Quartz crystals in the pocket, otherwise the piece is pristine. Great quality all around and so showy and aesthetic!
