I truly love this dramatic matrix cluster of elongated quartz scepters to 4 inches in height. Extended, colorless stalks give way to glassy, shortened terminal scepters that are lustrous and sharp; and have depth to them caused by the complex layered inclusions of hematite within. Most unusual, are the phantoms created by stems extending into the scepters. A later generation of hematite inclusions has given this specimen a taupe color atop the stalks, contrasting with the darker tips. These crystals reach 10.5 cm in length. Simply, a superb display specimen! It is complete all around on the major crystals, front and back, except for only minor peripheral contact around the base, one small broken crystal near the base; and on the backside a single broken smaller crystal. There is a very, very tight and clean repair about the midpoint that was unknown even to Charlie, hard to spot (but this was priced down accordingly from $2500, even so).
