Item Description

Classic and sculptural small cabinet smoky quartz scepter from the Foster Hallman claim at famous Hallelujah Junction, Nevada. A sharp, hexagonal, gemmy/translucent, 4.4 cm, terminated smoky quartz scepter aesthetically rests atop the hexagonal, dark smoky quartz stalk. The lustrous, light smoky scepter is visually enhanced by the interior milky quartz clouds. Complete all-around and pristine. See the 2022 Mineralogical Record article in Vol. 53, No. 2. From the Bill Larson Quartz collection case, of approximately 250 specimens, which we bought in 2023. It was a long-term, very diverse mix on display for decades at the Pala International shop as an educational and fun exhibit. It was started back in the late 1970s. A very fine, showy and substantial smoky quartz scepter from the well-known locale.
