suburb crystal specimen! The main crystal measures 2 1/2"X 1 1/4 and

and displays quite aesthetically!
Nothing in the world is more beautiful, I repeat once again, than
the view of a freshly opened pocket of excellent Quartz,
the various colors of nature playing therein. I have opened
many which are not large but exquisite, and I cannot adequately describe
the great joy which that view gives me, nor the sorrow which overtakes my heart when I must
break apart such beauty in order to dig it out.
- Father Placidus Spescha 1752 - 1833 -
