Quartz

Quartz is beloved for it thousands of habits found around the world. Some of the most distinctive Quartz specimens found in Alpine deposits are the attractive "Faden" crystal groups. This crystal group exhibits the classic "Faden" (German word for string) form that is well known from this area. The piece exhibits several very striking "Fadens" that run through the length of the superb, sharp, highly lustrous, gem quality, colorless crystals that create this highly aesthetic, three-dimensional group. The overall quality of the Quartz crystals on this specimen is as fine as any I've seen from this area.
