Item Description

Serifos Island hedenbergite-included quartz "prases" are a European classic. This elegant cluster of lustrous and translucent, tapered green crystals has dramatic flair, with the distinctively different terminations to the crystals. Most of the crystals look like flower buds about to open, while the unusual and uncommon flat-topped crystal is terminated and undamaged. Complete all-around and nearly pristine. A trivial bruise is noted to the large crystal temination and just a bit of sidewear is noted lower on one side of this same crystal. Fine material from this noted locale.
