7" Tessin Habit Smoky Quartz Crystal - Nigeria

This is a natural smoky quartz crystal that was collected from Taraba, Nigeria. It has beautiful smoky coloration throughout the crystal and terminations along both ends. There are small, fibrous black inclusions within the crystal which attribute to the smoky color. The tapered shape of the crystal is classified as "Tessin Habit" which is defined as having a smaller cross section the closer you get to the termination. This habit often occurs in conditions of high pressure and temperature.
