Item Description
A dramatic, very fine example of growth phantoms within a quartz crystal, showing such symmetry and precision that this looks as if carved by a laser! The crystal is, as most suc are, polished on the faces to emphasize the inclusions and enhance the gemminess. However, the crystal is not carved into shape or with unnatural faces added.
