Item Description

A really neat faden or "string" quartz from Pakistan. Two striking parallel-growth clusters of stacked doubly terminated tabular water-clear quartz crystals feature distinctive and classic fadens and chisel terminations. The clusters are bridged and accented with second generation prismatic terminated quartz crystals. The bend in the large cluster adds dramatic visual appeal to this exceptional, pristine, 360-degree Toyee faden quartz. One of the best ones we have seen from here. Ex David Burgess Collection, for whom Burgessite is named.
