Arkansas is home to some of the most famous and prolific Quartz localities in the United States, time and again producing some stunning specimens like this! This main component of this specimen is a substantial Quartz crystal (22.0 centimeters in length) that has a completely gemmy upper half and heavily striated side faces, which accent the specimen's dramatic luster. The lower half of the specimen is just as impressive (if not more), brimming with several robust and beautifully-formed Quartz crystals. Interestingly, minor phantoms are shown on the back end of the smaller crystals that jut from the main Quartz crystal, giving the impression of a "double-terminated" crystal. This piece comes with a custom acrylic base.
