A stunning, very rare, multiple crystal, cabinet specimen of unique and unusual quartz from a one-time, 2005 find in Madagascar. Specimens are very hard to get today. Purple fluorite octahedrons to 5 mm are richly and attractively included in large, dramatic, intergrown, lightly frosted, transparent quartz crystals on a matrix of smaller quartz crystals. The beautiful, sharply terminated spires are complete-all-around. One of the best pieces from this very small find.
