Large cabinet size plate covered with slender water clear terminated quartz crystals. This is a great display piece - the slab is entirely covered with many hundreds of slender water clear quartz crystals in radiating splays. The crystals are typically around 1 cm long & very delicate. They are difficult to photograph well due to their clarity & internal reflections. What you do get is a really well balanced & sculptural display piece which is 14 cm across at its widest point. Because they are transparent, if you light this piece it literally shines & sparkles at you. There are also a few small scattered pieces of pyrite perched on the quartz crystals for added interest. Quartz may be the most common mineral in the earth’s crust, but this is nothing like an ordinary sandstone or some common beach sand. The big brother of these water clear crystals - large Alpine or Himalayan quartz as they are often referred to, command very high prices as highly collectible & rare minerals.
