Double Terminated Smoky Quartz Crystal - VAR 014
|
|
Measurements: 33 x 21
x 14 mm Description: A very
pretty, gemmy, double terminated, light smoky quartz crystal, with a
lovely
rainbow, about 10 mm in diameter. The facets
are exceptionally well formed. Close
to the lesser termination is a prominent pressure mark, with some
pitting. This
is probably because it had formed over another crystal, which had
minerals
attached to it. Then this specimen became detached from the
other, and
the minerals eroded away, which left the pitting. The
main termination has only a few extremely minute nicks, and the lesser
termination has pressure marks and a few small nicks. Weight
