A phenomenal Smoky Scepter Quartz from Little Falls, Herkimer, New York. While most Quartz from this locality is commonly referred to as Herkimer "Diamonds" due to their clarity and brilliance, this piece has a perfect balance between light and dark emphasizing the contrast that is rare to see from this region. Additionally there are several gem crystals surrounding the scepter which add the traditional presentation for a Herkimer "diamond" Quartz.
