Description

Although quartz is generally common, it is very rare in Lavrion. Local collectors price it highly because of the rarity and it is usually found in small crystals. This piece comes from an old find and is a fine quartz cluster, partly covered with limonite. A few chips are present but of minor importance. I acquired this specimen from a German collection in Munich, a few years ago.
