Description

Quartz Cluster
Boyacá Department, Colombia
10.8 x 9.7 x 8.6 cm (4.4 x 3.8 x 3.3 in)

The quality of the crystals in this stunning cluster is really incredible: there is not a single nick or scratch on the main crystals, and the clarity and transparency are akin to the clearest water. The softly striated terminations go from glassy to sparkling with inclusions down into the base of the cluster, with some accenting iron oxides that give the piece a pop of orange color. This specimen is also very sculptural, and stands very beautifully on its own, with the Quartz growing proudly up from the matrix.
