Description

Sharp quartz crystals from a remote locality.

In my years of collecting San Juan quartz I've only seen a couple from this high and out of the way area. Great luster. The terminations have an ever so slight darker hue that adds to the aesthetics. Great locality piece. Very small chips on a couple of crystals. Acrylic base is not included.
