Quartz (Var: Smoky Quartz), Quartz (Var: Amethyst)

This is a large, superb, and interesting Brandberg crystal. Most dramatic is the offset, parallel growth, with reverse sceptering. Add to this an easily visible enhydro (a moving bubble trapped inside a water pocket). And on top of all this, the clarity is magnificent, with a stunning mix of blushes of smoky and amethystine hues inside. Glassy luster, too. Ex. Richard Hauck Collection.
