Description

SMOKEY "ELESTIAL" QUARTZ
Minas Gerais, Brazil
The term 'Elestial' is a relatively recent one borrowed from the crystal consciousness groups. This one term replaces such terms as: Jacare Quartz, Alligator Quartz, Skeleletal Quartz, etc. In all cases it describes crystals with multiple analogous faces. This extremely large example displays, besides the "Elestial" habit, a coloration ranging from golden to sable brown, fine glassy luster and a very low level of damage. At 18 ½ x 13 ½ x 2 ½ inches it is a fine, museum level display specimen.
