53mm x 53mm x 50mm
Sharp cluster of colorless transparent Tessin-habit quartz crystals to over 50 mm long, the lower portions of the crystals included with a green Chlorite Group mineral, on a matrix of cream-colored K Feldspar var. Adularia. Some adularia crystals show apparent Carlsbad twinning. A couple of dinky micro-chips can be seen on the main crystal termination under 10x magnification, pretty much invisible to the naked eye; otherwise clean of damage.
