Large transparent smokey Quartz crystal with inclusions of Rutile needles. The crystal is double-terminated and crystallized all around though the backside grew into clay and is covered by many tiny faces rather than one large crystal face. There are a few chips but it's in overall good condition. Out of an old collection. Big, glassy gem crystal valued at $350.
