Item Description

All seven of the primary quartz crystal terminations on this very aesthetic and striking specimen from a NEW find are sceptered dipyramids! The scepters are glassier, colorless compared to the oxide-included stalks, which have intense stepped-growth faces. The three largest crystals are preferentially coated with lustrous, off-white, feldspar crystals and are a fine accent. An impressive, 360-degree specimen with only one broken crystal at the base. All of the scepters are pristine. This remote skarn deposit is producing an impressive variety of fine specimens. Get good ones while you can. Who knows how long they will last.
