This is a gorgeous Herk Cluster, mined in the mid 1980's. A central large crystal is flanked by over a dozen bright clear herks. It has a light charcoal-smoky hue, but is really gemmy. Good ones like this are few and far between. As is the case with all large clusters, the crystals have been reattached ("Re-constructed") to exactly how they naturally grew in the pocket.
