SOLD
A most unusual specimen of QUARTZ WITHIN quartz, with a large crystal totally embedded within the larger. Now, you see overgrowth a lot, and SOME instances of partial inclusion, but few instances as dramatic as this one. The piece is complete all around and undamaged save for two very trivial dings on the whole, towards the right edge and rear. Otherwis, e undamaged. It displays phenomenally and is so gemmy and clear that the internal crystal leaps out at you as if from a mirror. I have been around this material for 22 years and NEVER EVER seen another quite like this one. This specimen came from a major private collection assembled over decades, in Arkansas, that was dispersed around the year 2000.
