Description

Impressive specimen of quartz from Lavrion!Quartz from Lavrion is very uncommon and when it appears it's dull milky single crystals! Here we have a great matrix piece with color contrast due to malachite! The crystals are well arranged, with the biggest one just in the middle!The rarest thing it's it is a scepter!Never seen one from there! Some areas of attachment of other crystals are present, but it's not what takes the eye off the piece!
