Item Description

A very showy, complete all-around and pristine cluster of five intergrown, lustrous, translucent, tapered quartz crystals richly included with olive-green hedenbergite from a very small NEW find in obscure Inner Mongolia. The faces of the crystals shimmer, due to the intense stepped-growth, a startling effect. The form reminds me of classic Serifos Island, Greece material.
