Description

Here we have a beautiful combination specimen from Pakistan. Several quartz crystals radiate outward in different directions, creating a dynamic three-dimensional cluster. Intergrown among them are multiple tourmaline crystals, including a main crystal with a bright, zoned green cap that adds a striking highlight to the piece. Parts of the quartz are coated with a fine layer of white microcrystals, giving the appearance of a light dusting of snow. The contrast between the quartz and the dark, vividly capped tourmaline makes this a highly aesthetic and eye-catching specimen.
