Item Description
This is a great representative WATER CLEAR crystal of the now well-known Quartzes included with slight green "phantoms" of Fuchsite mica. What makes it so important is that the phantom is so sharp and distinct along with being complete AND 3-dimensional as if it was laser-carved! There are some scars along the prism where clearly the crystal separated from other Quartzes, but honestly who cares in this case ?? ...it in no way detracts from how neat the phantom is.
