Description

I rank   this one very high for the aesthetic assemble. Most Rose Quartz specimen are   clusters or inter-grown groups of crystals - and that is my problem with Rose   Quartz; in 99% I miss contrast and aesthetics. This particular specimen shows   a spray of sharp terminated, free-standing and highly lustrous crystals in   really good pink color. The exposed main crystal is in remarkable dimension   for Rose Quartz. The group looks-like a flower set on a common, well shaped   milky Quartz. The assemble looks much more tri-dimensional in person and it   is in excellent condition damage-wise; all crystals are sharp, they all show   the same high quality and luster. Again - photos don´t do justice to the   piece; never had a more aesthetic piece and also the crystal dimension is   really exceptional. Ex Fabian Wildfang coll.
