Item Description
A beautiful and highly displayable Smoky Quartz doubly-terminated scepter crystal from the Karur District in India. The piece is complete on all sides, with no major damage, so I'm calling it a complete "floater". Every side features sharp lustrous faces and a rich almost "morion" color, that brightens up to a pleasing smoky hue when backlit. The most interesting aspect of the piece is that it's not just doubly-terminated, but it features a rarely seen dual termination on the top with a pair of gemmy Quartz crystals showing a fantastic purple Amethyst hue. There are a lot of Quartz specimens in the world, from a lot of localities, but this one really stands out for me as being different and beautiful. How often have you seen a scepter crystal with a pair of smaller crystals on the termination like this?
