Description

This is a beautiful example of superb, reflective, Irish smoky quartz crystals from a new find in County Mayo.
There are numerous crystal points displaying a light smoky brown/gray colour with darker edges and points that make the whole assemblage even more esthetic. The points are up to 1.5 cm across.

Difficult to photograph and much better in person.

A superb specimen from a limited new find so fresh that the small pocket has not been full excavated hence full details of locality and date of find will be provided to the buyer.
