Quartz var: Smoky (''fenster'' and scepter habits)

Item Description

A dramatically showy and fine quality display specimen from Erongo featuring a group of sharp, very lustrous, well-formed, light smoky colored Smoky Quartz crystals showing slight skeletal, window or "Fenster" habit growth on the pyramidal faces. The Smoky crystals are sitting atop a cluster of GEM QUALITY, colorless, transparent Quartz crystals from a previous generation, forming a scepter habit group, aesthetically flaring off matrix. So you have a combo of "Fenster" and scepter together on the same piece! The specimen is highly displayable, as it sits beautifully on its own without the aid of a base or clay. No damage that I can find with the naked eye. A really showy and fine quality example with multiple styles / morphologies together, creating a wonderful overall display piece. Valued at $1,800 retail. From the collection of Jelani Daniel.
