Rose Quartz (MacFall Coll.)

Item Description

Rose quartz is actually quite rare in nature, occuring in good specimens of display quality from a very few localities. This specimen has really pink rose quartz. It is not just pink quartz, but intensely colored pink quartz. So many are pale, by comparison. It is classic for old finds from this prominent deposit for rose quartz found in the 1970s, and not often since. Specimens like this have always been highly desired ever since then. This piece is robust, and crystallized thickly all the way around except for some contacting on the back. Sharp crystals exceed 2.1 cm. Ex Russell MacFall Collection. Valued at $600-800.
