Quartz var Smoky -Reverse Sceptered

Hallelujah Junction produces world class quartz scepters and continues to be mined. This piece was found in 2015. There were far less “reverse” scepters than the other way around. Three of the faces have a very distinct drop off to the clear termination while the other three have a very fine line where it is almost imperceptible. Growth phase disturbances on the shaft of the crystal make it even more interesting! Ex Ken Roberts collection
