Item Description
A distinct interior phantom highlights this striking, sharp, water-clear, smoky quartz crystal with fine color. The crystal rests on an undulating bed of splendent hematite blades. Classic, old-time and very showy combination material from the famous Florence Mine and certainly dates to the 19th or early 20th Centuries. Just a bit of brusing is noted on the termination on this excellent, 360-degree specimen. Ex Jaime Bird Collection.
