Water-Clear Quartz Crystal Cluster from Colombia - Muzo Crystallization Habit - 18.57 grams
Gem: Quartz crystal Weight: 18.57 grams Dimensions: 47.2 x 22 x 15.5 mm Clarity: N/A, but the clarity is excellent. The largest crystal is half eye clean Origin: Pena Blanca Mine, Colombia Treatments: None Comments: I don't typically offer quartz varieties, but this growth habit is particularly beautiful, and geometric. It's considered hard to find, and the best examples come from Colombia, specifically from the Pena Blanca Mine, which translates to 'The White Stone' mine. This example is a triple cluster of well-formed, gemmy quartz crystals, each with distinct, parallel growth 'rings' or steps. The terminations are 99% damage free, as is most of the rest of the piece. Each of the individual crystals has a tapered hexagon shape, and several modifying faces at the top. This piece would sit and display in a custom base really well.
