Amazonite and Smoky Quartz

Unknown Owner
A nice combination specimen of black smoky quartz and blue amazonite crystals. The amazonite is of good color and has nice luster. The quartz crystal on the far right has a repair. The smoky in the middle is stretched along one axis producing a unique distorted crystal. According to the Dorris label on the bottom it was repaired twice. A modern American classic. Comes with a custom sunnywood acrylic base.
