Item Description

A very nifty and rare combination specimen from recent Chinese finds. A water-clear, doubly terminated, floater quartz crystal is very richly included with a striking pod of graphite (carbon) flecks. Complete all-around, this sharp, flattened, pseudohexagonal crystal is essentially pristine, with only the most trivial of termination and side wear. This is one of the more dramatic such examples we have seen of this rare quartz with graphite inclusions
