Flattened, doubly-terminated quartz crystals with scepter growth at both ends, coloured dull white at the central zone with transparent lustrous amethyst overgrowths. Some pictures are backlighted.

It was found in 08/2007 and it is free of damage (the main end was contacted with the feldspar matrix but not broken). I selected this piece from a stock of dozens, more common crystals.
