Description

Please note that this specimen is not heated – the color is natural, most rare variety of Quartz! The faces are etched, they show windows and uncountable steps – but all are highly lustrous! 

The crystal is developed as floater, even bottom shows sharp end-points. The color on my photos is absolutely natural – photography done under daylight. The specimen was mined in the 80ties, today it is nearly impossible to acquire this material. No significant damages to report.
