This is a rare cluster of GEMMY "gem crystals" showing unusually complete clarity without the inclusions of rhyolite matrix that so cloud them up. There is a slight contact on one back edge, as you can see in the upper-right photo, but the piece displays best with that to the rear anyhow and is otherwise symmetrical and complete all around. This is a near-floater cluster with a small bit of attached matrix, but showing clearly both terminations on the main crystal. These crystals Charlie had put away back in the 1960s after a good trade with dealer A.L. McGuiness GLOW with color and are, for combination of color and clarity, the finest I have seen for sale. This piece is a floater with a small bit of attached matrix in the cluster. The quality is simply AMAZING and the glassy lustre combined with intense color is , no hyperbole here, stunning and absolutely first rate.
