Pleasing to the eye and to the discerning taste, this doubly-terminated scepter is really quite a little gem. It is rather more developed than most from the locality, in terms of 3-dimensionality. This was a onetime find in or about 1981 if i recall. VERY hard to get one, nowadays! 2.9 x 1.5 x 1.4 cm
