Quartz
Arkansas quartz can still hardly be rivaled for quality, and though it is abundant in plates of modest crystals, the really good specimens with large, glassy clear crystals and fine aesthetics are not to be taken lightly. This specimen features two very large and very fine crystals, of "optical quartz" quality, RAZOR sharpness and glassy luster. The larger of the two measures 13 cm tall and 5 cm across. What is best is how the two crystals cross each other at an angle to form such a stunning specimen from an aesthetic standpoint. Tiny tip ding just under the tip of one of the two big crystals that is pretty insignificant in context of the size of this specimen. This one was good enough to be in the Hauck Collection. Richard Hauck Quartz Collection specimen.
