This elegant specimen features a sharply terminated faden quartz crystal aesthetically rising from a contrasting hard matrix. The crystal displays superb luster and excellent transparency, with the distinctive internal faden thread beautifully visible throughout. Its balanced upright position and sculptural form create wonderful visual appeal and striking contrast against the earthy matrix. Although the specimen has one repair at the base, it does not detract from the piece’s overall impressive quality and display. Faden quartz is highly sought after for its unique internal thread formation and graceful crystal habit.
