Quartz With Hematite
THIS IS A very LARGE PIECE! It has a lustrous smoky quartz overgrowth on a nest of rather equant, lustrous and translucent, lavender-colored amethyst crystals. The largest smoky crystal measures 11.0 cm in length. This large specimen is remarkably free of damage, having only some minor contact points on the nesting crystals at the base of the big smokies. The crystallization is shockingly 3-D and 360-degrees. Though the piece is not repaired, the smaller of the two major crystals was wiggly, and thus Charlie anchored it with a wad of epoxy around its base (not visible unless you hold the piece up and look underneath, anyhow), but I priced this as if it were repaired to be on the fair side. When this specimen is more strongly backlit, it exhibits its rich color of hues of red and lavender.
