Clear quartz crystal as a long drawn scepter in the best quality. The scepter has grown with three dominant prismatic surfaces. The high-gloss surfaces show a little windowing and, as a special highlight, a phantom which also shows a little windowing and is formed over the entire length of the scepter. Really impressive!
