Item Description
Liliana is renowned for producing some beautiful and unique Quartz scepters and this is a beautiful example with BOTH "inward" and "outward" sceptering for a bit of extra complexity! This small-cabinet specimen is composed of a single prism of colorless/white Quartz surrounded at the base by a "halo" of beautiful prisms and scepters. The main crystal termination shows to be a reverse scepter, which is an interesting counterpoint to the other scepters of more typical form. The upper half of this crystal is totally gemmy, with a visual texture that makes it look like ice. Such variety and sculptural balance all in one piece! The scepters from this locality are distinct and notable, and create a fine aesthetic. This specimen is in excellent condition and displays well from several angles, and one could spend a good amount of time simply soaking in all it fine little features and facets.
