Item Description
A superior diverging cluster of water-clear quartz crystals with unusual features from this famous gold. The prism faces are alternately glass-clear or have very interesting parallel scalloped etching. Complete all-around and in very fine shape. The two "rabbit ears" points have very trivial termination bruising and the broken crystals at the base are at the back side of the primary view. Choice material from the Bob Trimingham Collection and purchased in 1976. Better in person.
