A most remarkable, castle-like crystal of huge size, from this famous pocket! This was said to be the best of them when they came out, and Francis bought it at the St Marie show about 20 years ago. It is absolutely pristine except for the lower point's rear which is slightly contacted. It has great luster and reflectivity whereas most of these are either dull or damaged. It is complete all around. It is simply very dramatic. I am not normally one to go crazy for Brazilian quartz but THIS pocket and this style are different, and I love them. This is the best large one that is CLEAR, that I have seen. Most of this habit are smoky and again, simply not as perfect or aesthetic. Comes with custom lucite base for easy display.
