Description

A very beautiful and, above all, very large specimen from the recent discovery in India, featuring prominent hematite phantom inclusions. The quartz crystals show especially well-developed, generously sized terminations, a strong vitreous luster, and good overall transparency. The hematite phantoms are clearly visible within the crystals and add significant depth and character to the piece. A highly impressive example from this remarkable and highly regarded find.
