Item Description
Serifos Island hedenbergite-included quartz "prases" are a European classic. This stellar, FLOATER, jackstraw cluster of lustrous and translucent, tapered green spikes has dramatic flair, with the largest crystal being 6.8 cm long. The three largest crystals are doubly terminated and several of the crystals have uncommon water-clear tips. Pristine, doubly terminated, floater crystal clusters of this quality and aesthetics are RARE from Serifos.
