"Elestial" Smoky Quartz (Hauck Coll.) North Carolina!

Item Description

Skeletal quartz (more popularly known as Elestial Quartz or Jacare Quartz) exhibits unique internal and external dissolution-growth features resulting from unstable conditions during crystallization. Skeletal quartz crystals often form with a geometric pattern of lines, depressions and raised terminations. This SHOWY and EXCELLENT "Elestial" smokey quartz specimen has a multitude of glassy, water-clear crystals on the very sculptural, 3-dimensional quartz matrix. RARELY do you see an "Elestial" of this quality from the Spruce Pine District of North Carolina. This would be worth $500, if from Brazil. Ex Richard Hauck Collection. Value of such a rarity, in this quality, from North Carolina???
