Item Description
A very attractive and interesting gemmy Quartz crystal with two distinctive things going for it: one, these interesting inclusions of metallic grey carbon, and two, at least one visibly moving bubble inside a water pocket (enhydro). When you rotate the Quartz crystal 180 degrees, not only can you see the water moving, but you see several small carbon "flakes" that float from one end of the bubble to the other. It's almost like a mini snowglobe inside of the Quartz crystal. We took a video of the inclusions to better show how it looks in person, which you can view at *** www.minclassics.com/DSCN2220.AVI *** A unique and eye-catching Quartz specimen that will make one collector very happy.
