Item Description
A very unusual and showy CABINET cluster of glassy, water-clear, quartz crystals with highly variable amounts and colors of clay inclusions from recent finds in Brazil. The interior of each crystal has a different look. The three large crystals at the top are doubly terminated, with the largest being 6.7 cm. The large crystal has trivial, barely noticeable, termination wear. Periphery wear on the left side is noted. The back of the piece is contacted, but is actually damage-free, per se. A very interesting quartz crystal from this noted locale. Valued at $400-500.
