Large Alligator Quartz Cluster, Smoky Jacare Quartz - One of a Kind, 11 In

Alligator quartz gets its name from its surface, and this large smoky cluster shows exactly why.

Run a finger over it and you feel ridges and recessed panes instead of smooth faces, a texture that sets it apart from ordinary quartz points. It is substantial enough to hold the corner of a desk or a shelf in an office, and the smoky tone keeps it understated in a room with wood or neutral decor. A good pick for a quartz collector who already has clear points and wants something with more texture, or for a nature lover drawn to stones that look shaped by time.

About Alligator Quartz

Alligator quartz, also sold as jacare quartz (jacare is Portuguese for alligator), is a trade name for smoky elestial quartz. Elestial is a market name for skeletal quartz, which forms in unusually saturated conditions when crystal edges grow faster than the faces, leaving recessed, layered faces with the pattern of alligator skin. Material sold under the name comes from localities such as Minas Gerais, Brazil.

Stone Meaning: Alligator quartz is traditionally associated with growth and patience.
