Item Description
Quartz specimens are rarely on the market from this much more obscure Arkansas locality. This impressive large mounded quartz combination plate is dominated by a striking 5.0 cm pair of water-clear quartz crystals. They look just like a pair of fishtail-twins (epecially on the back side), but are actually a tightly intergrown pair of crystals. The sharp pearlescent albite crystals are a very nice and RARE accent. Rare and excellent material from the Bob Trimingham Collection and purchased in 1968 from Harry Sering.
