This is a transparent Quartz Crystal. It's flattened, hexagonal shape comes to a nice point as it's six faces meet at the pinacle. It is rather included but is transparent in areas. Projecting out from all the faces are small, well shaped pyramidal crystals aiming in all directions. Very delicate, but it is a great example of how Quartz Crystals grow out from the Mother Crystal! The entire piece weighs approximately 172.86Cts. and is over 72mm in length.
