This is a scepter not in the sense of a traditional crystal scepterd form but in the sense of a "royal" scepter - actually, formed stalactitically, with the elongated central crystal capped by a spiky cluster. There is a thin tube that runs right through the center of the big crystal, marking the center of the stalactite. This is from a small batch of these we acquired, from the same pocket. This one is in pristine condition! Stunning!
