Natural Smoky Quartz Crystal Cluster - Brazil #231281

This is a natural smoky quartz crystal cluster from Brazil. This cluster has a mixture of polished and natural faces for overall aesthetic enhancement. The polishing can be found across a couple of the termination facets. It has not been heated or treated to enhance its color.

Smoky quartz is a grey-brown to black variety of quartz. This common name is derived from the appearance of smoke within the quartz crystal. Depending on the location and the chemicals present during formation, smoky quartz can appear opaque black, but it is typically translucent to some extent. It is believed that the quartz gains this color from a combination of natural irradiation and aluminum impurities.
