Large Cabinet, 17.8 x 9.0 x 5.0 cm
SOLD
The only specimen I have seen like this, in such quality! This piece has a 9 cm doubly-terminated quartz atop a larger, extended quartz shard; and the whole quartz shard is included here and there by beautiful lepidolite, giving a golden "glow" when backlit to the whole specimen.
