Item Description

A VERY UNUSUAL and showy style of schorl and quartz from recent finds in the Shigar Valley of Pakistan. The two, lustrous, striated, bifurcating, quartz "rabbit-ears" are UNCOMMONLY, for Pakistan, loaded with schorl inclusions and have schorl crystals attached to them as well. This highly lustrous, stranger is complete all-around, pristine and one "ear" has a very nifty, smaller schorl attached to its termination.
