Smoky Quartz ex.Nowakowski Coll.

Item Description

A 600-gram Smoky Quartz crystal of substantial size for this classic locale, from a famous find of the mid-90s. Gem smokies of this elongated, tapered style can be found at other locations, but what made this find special was not just the root-beer color and great gemminess, or the elegant tapering form - thos esharp chevron-like phantoms are really just mesmerizing, and not seen in other smokies. This piece is huge and dramatic. It is complete literally all around except for a faint, tiny ding in the back of the tip and a truly trivial bit of edge wear. Crystals this size, in this condition, that are not repaire dor banged up, are simply not seen for sale on the market today very often. When you see this in person next to other quartzes, as well, you will see this unique style more apparently; and how impressive it shows in person. Ex Bob Nowakowski collection. Valued $2000-2500. Comes with custom-made base
