Item Description
A nifty, sharply terminated quartz scepter is included-with and coated-with, sparkly microcrystalline hematite. A thin preferential secondary overgrowth layer of water-clear quartz has included the hematite on five or the six termination faces. A facinating and showy thumbnail with interesting chemistry. Ex Jaime Bird Collection and dates to the 1960s or 70s. MUCH better in person!
