LARGE TRANSPARENT QUARTZ CRYSTAL - North Pakistan

CRYSTAL ('ROCK CRYSTAL')
Completely natural as found
Skardu District,
Baltistan, North Pakistan
A very large crystal of transparent quartz. It is as exactly as found - the faces have not been artificially polished as is often the case with large quartz crystals (in our view re-polishing destroys wonder of these natural crystals).
There is some damage to the crystal termination (see photographs) but otherwise it's a lovely specimen. Some damage is inevitable in a crystal of this size, which is why the faces are usually ground and polished.
It would make ideal addition to a mantlepiece.
