Turgite, Quartz
This is a superb example of a bizarre association. It features a large 9-cm-tall, doubly-terminated quartz crystal, completely and evenly coated by an iridescent, very colorful coating of turgite. The quartz sits on a shard of matrix that was itself coated by turgite and then attached to the quartz. The two pieces are fused solidly together by the turgite overgrowth, and thus the shard provides a natural, curving, artistic pedestal. Complete all around. Ex. John Barlow Collection and accompanied by his signed label.
