Description
A quartz crystal from the Greek island of Serifos. This dichroic specimen displays a delicate light greenish hue at its base, caused by minute mineral inclusions, while the upper portion transitions into clear quartz with a very subtle amethystine tint. Both aesthetically pleasing and scientifically intriguing, this piece offers a glimpse into the evolving geochemical conditions during crystal growth, reflecting changes in the chemistry of the mineralizing solution throughout the crystallization process.
