Quartz on Stand

Consisting of numerous transparent crystals aesthetically arranged with the longest crystal stemming from the upper center mass, this Quartz cluster is a collectors masterpiece. A majority of the crystals have sharp terminations and are crystal-clear, with minor inclusions found nearer the base.

The second most abundant mineral in the Earth's crust, Quartz is often praised for its clarity and the many colors it can form as. These variations (Amethyst, Citrine, Rose Quartz, etc.) form due to impurities in the Quartz crystal when Iron, Manganese, and other ions are present while the crystal is forming. The pure form of Quartz is white or clear, depending on the conditions of the crystals environment during formation- trapped gas and liquid in the crystal can keep the Quartz from appearing clear and instead have a white appearance.
