It does not come out in the pics, but this large faden quartz specimen has a distinct faden line running all the way through it. It is quite lustrous, with sharp faces and pretty "cut-glass"-like staggered growth along one side. The crystal is complete and terminated all around! 15.2 x 7.7 x 5.2cm
North Waziristan District, Pakistan, faden quartz from Miram Shah fissures; sculptural, glassy crystals with Alpine-cleft form and rare fluorvesuvianite.
