Item Description

These fantastic looking terminated smoky quartz crystals have the striking "alligator" look, where the quartz crystals look like the large plates in an alligator's hide! The very glassy, transparent smoky quartz crystals have variable smoky color and some crystals have distinctive darker edges and are doubly terminated. The impressive water-clear, lighter 5.3 cm crystal at the top is a highlight. Overall, this excellent large plate is nearly pristine, with only trivial scuffing along one edge. Stunning smoky quartz from the Paul Zerfass Collection # 1187.
