Smoky Quartz (Lockhart Coll.)

Item Description

Intergrown gem smoky quartz crystals form a classic, dramatically sculptural, rich and rare large specimen from Switzerland. The densely intergrown sharply terminated very glassy gem crystals have fine smoky color and the stepped-growth prism faces and striking offset steep terminations add much character to this outstanding piece. The two impressive large smokies in the front are both 9.0 cm long. Nearly pristine. It's hard to see the one broken crystal behind the two large smokies. Ex Brent Lockhart Swiss Collection and comes with a custom-made and engraved lucite base valued at $225 for free. Smoky quartz specimens of this size and quality are RARE from the Cristallina Valley of Grisons.
