Lightly smoky quartz rests on a bed of crystalline dioptase, with minor plancheite on the backside. Small spheres of heterogenite inclusions can be seen within the quartz and the vibrant green dioptase below. A well crystallized combo specimen from recent production in the Congo. In good overall condition, minor damage visible. Sharp terminations and good luster all around.
