Despite a natural contact and some minor edge-wear (one tip is dinged), this is a REALLY impressive example of a clear quartz crystal shot through with shimmering, golden acicular crystals of rutile. They are spread liberally through the crystal, so you can see them flashing everywhere - particularly since the faces of the crystal are glassy and the interior is glassy-transparent as well. What is really cool is that this is a complete, DOUBLY-TERMINATED floater crystal - and large! Ex. Richard Hauck Collection.
