Item Description
A glassy, translucent, smoky quartz "tower" with stepped-growth faces dominates the plate covered with gemmy and lustrous, cinnamon-orange spessartine garnets and a few smaller smokies on this showy and excellent small cabinet from Tongbei. The piece displays well from three sides. The smoky is pristine. Prices will go up, with the closing of the locale.
