Item Description
An impressive, complete all-around, LARGE CABINET, plate covered with smoky quartz crystals highlighted by a striking, perpendicular, 5.8 cm, doubly terminated crystal. The multiple terminations on the DT crystal are very nifty. The glassy and lustrous, transparent to translucent crystals have been irradiated to bring out the rich, dark, smoky color. Very nearly pristine, with only a trivial bit of edgewear. A dramatic and showy large Arkansas plate from the Jaime Bird Collection.
