Item Description
This is a great thumbnail sized specimen of these now well-known pieces featuring a WATER CLEAR crystal of Quartz included with distinct trigonal green "phantoms" of Fuchsite (a chromium-bearing variety of Muscovite Mica). The key to the piece is that the phantom is sharp and distinct, and the Quartz itself is complete all around, save the base where it detached from the matrix. These are some of the most distinctive Quartz crystals from any locality in Madagascar, which is really saying something considering
