Anatase

29 x 17 x 15 mm overall

A perfect, sharp, well-formed, dark-grey Anatase crystal with mirror-bright faces and a well-developed pinacoidal termination is aesthetically placed on a druse of nearly colorless quartz crystals. This doubly-terminated Anatase is 14 x 9 x 7 mm in size. The high luster makes this difficult to photograph. Collected by Torgeir Garmo before the early 1990s, this is a superb thumbnail with no damage.
