Item Description

For quantity and quality, the top quartz specimens from Arkansas rival the finest colorless quartzes from just about anywhere else in the world. This fine, large, hexagonal prism is sharply terminated and is mostly water-clear, gem. The termination has a higher concentration of interior veils. The subtle stepped-growth faces add character. Complete all-around essentially pristine, with only trival edge wear. A couple of small fragments of attached quartz crystals are noted. Classic Mt. Ida quartz. Ex Russell Jones Collection. 246 grams. MUCH BETTER IN PERSON.
