Item Description

A spectacular, super well-devoloped faden quartz from Pakistan. The striking faden or string runs down the spine of the flattened, water-clear, doubly terminated single quartz crystal with razor-sharp beveled edges. Complete all-around and nearly pristine, with only the contact on one end and barely noticeable infinitesimal edge wear. Single crystal faden quartz from Pakistan is uncommon and this is an excellent example. Ex Marty Lewadny Collection
