A single quartz crystal, clear like an icicle and sharp like glass! The flattened tessing habit crystal shows really just amazing quality with best wet-look luster on front and backside as well. It is associated with a cluster of schist matrix covered in quartz. The main crystal has a small damage at the lower backside but apart from that it is flawless right up to the sharp chisel-tip termination!

The main crystal on this attractive matrix specimen is 5.5 cm long, sharp and exceptionally lustrous. It is accompanied by a number of equally good side crystals on a white feldspar matrix. Very aesthetic and in overall best condition!

Golden orange iron oxide coating on the matrix radiates its warm color throughout this whole specimen! The glassy high quality quartz crystals themselves are colorless but especially close to the matrix the color gets increasingly strong! The largest crystal is close to 5 cm long with a diameter of 2.4 cm and it is sharp and brilliant. All crystals are in superb condition and of best quality. This is a very natural specimen with a classic appeal!
