Smoky Quartz (scepter) (ex Rolando Gioia Collection)

Item Description

Here we have a very attractive, sharp, well-formed, gemmy, light smoky colored Quartz crystal group which has formed a scepter on a nearly colorless Quartz "stem". Such great form on a piece this size is not common from this area, and it's complete all the way around. I can see an area of incomplete growth on the base, otherwise it's in super shape. These are rare from Brazil with this specific shape and such fine crystallization and gemminess. From the collection of Rolando Gioia (a contributor to new definitive book on Brazilian minerals: "Minerais e Pedras Preciosas do Brasil").
