Item Description

Huge cluster of skeletal, doubly-terminated Amethyst and Smoky Quartz scepters from Namibia. The largest of these sceptered terminations is an amazing 11 cm long by 8 cm wide. The luster is good, and you can see the Amethyst mixed in with the Smokey Quartz. The scepters are very architectural - compartments within compartments, and the condition of the crystals is excellent. For what it took to mine these, you would never expected pristine quality, but that is what these are. Very aesthetic, and amazing size and quality. Charlie Key valued this at $5000 in his quartz subcollection
