Item Description
A unusual and very showy quartz crystal pair from this famous Maine locale. Both crystals have readily visible tabular phantoms pressed against one side at the base. A nifty pair, as the shorter, stouter crystal is more glassy, transparent, while its taller brother is tabular and mostly translucent. The taller crystal has just a hint of termiation bruising and the slight periphery wear is certainly not a detraction. A fine 360-degree quartz and rare for this varietal from this noted locale. Ex Schlichter Collection. BETTER IN PERSON.
