A striking, very rare cabinet quartz specimen from Mariposa County, California. This giant crystal is a complete-all-around, doubly terminated floater. The glassy crystals are transparent to translucent. Two sides of the main crystal show inclusions of sparkly, brassy, pyrite microcrystals. The sidecar crystals, the unusual, notched, stepped-growth, basal termination and water-clear, main termination are super accents. Ex. F. Stevano Collection.
