A stunning smoky quartz specimen from recent finds in Minas Gerais, Brazil. The striking cathedral-like termination is water-clear, gem-quality and rests on glassy milky quartz. The termination is beautifully complete-all-around and pristine. The front of the milky quartz is totally crystallized with stepped-growth faces. The back of the milky quartz is contacted and is out of sight. This is simply an outstanding large cabinet Brazilian smoky quartz, rivaling Swiss smoky quartz.
