Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Quartz
Locality: Denny Mountain, King County, Washington, USA (Locality at mindat.org)
Size: cabinet, 9.5 x 6.4 x 5.3 cm
Amethyst sceptre on Quartz
Matrix pieces from Denny are as rare and desirable, if not more so, than the material from the likewise almost-inaccessible Spruec Claim (such as the piece above). This is the best matrix Denny that I have seen for sale in probably 10 years. It features not one but FOUR of the classic amethyst sceptres! Only rarely do you get a big plate surviving and coming out in any kind of decent shape. This one is very fine, with all major crysatls intact and just some damage to smaller peripheral quartz points. The amethyst caps are all pristine, as well. Like the above specimen, this is somewhat premium in price but for those who understand the rarity of fine specimens afrom these locales, and how hard they are to collect, the prices are not unreasonable at all in my opinion. I would love ot see these two special pieces go together and stay as a set! They are matched in size, and rarity, and desirability; representing two of our great quartz localities to be sure but also two of our most hard to get classic US locales!
