This is a large, incredibly sparkling cluster of solid quartz balls, all with this rich hue of lavender-purple (the strongest color of all pieces here, in person). Totally different from any other quartz you have seen! It is really just plain gorgeous, for color and complex 3-dimensional, almost biological appearance. This solid cluster is translucent at all edges, and is complete all around except only a small attachment on back. Very bizarre creature, and a neat addition to any collection because the color and style is simply "different"
