Its broad proportions make it appear smaller in photographs than it feels in hand, with considerable weight and thickness through the body of the crystal.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quartz is remarkably clear for a specimen of this size, with a cool colouring through much of the crystal and warm golden flashes that reveal themselves when the crystal catches natural light. The column faces are highly reflective, while still retaining the fine horizontal striations and subtle surface patterning that can so easily be lost when material of this quality is polished. Up close, these growth features form an almost digital pattern across sections of the surface and give the crystal considerably more character than a polished finish would.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe crystal has a strong, clean termination and a gently tapered profile, with the earliest suggestion of cathedral like growth beginning to develop along parts of the facets. Combined with its remarkable clarity and preservation, these subtle structural features reward further study.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Liminal Stone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52789822161028,"sku":"C-07","price":979.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1020\/1815\/4628\/files\/DE97B176-5430-409C-AD13-FDAA526A3742.jpg?v=1789013346","url":"https:\/\/www.theliminalstone.com\/products\/smoky-quartz-1","provider":"The Liminal Stone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
