These elegant Le Chang quartzes have such a "classic" look to them, with their subtle rusty-red hematite inclusions giving them a look similar to some English calcites. The quartz matrix at the bottom has a sprinkling of shiny black specular hematite as well. The crystals here measure to 3.5 cm in length; they lean in towards one another to make a very aesthetic specimen.
