Large Alligator Smoky Quartz Formation - Natural Brazil, 12 Inch

Alligator quartz gets its name from its ridged, layered surface, and this large smoky formation from Brazil shows that texture beautifully across its whole length.

At about a foot long, it is a natural sculpture for a mantel, a console table or a collector's shelf, and the warm smoky tones suit modern and rustic rooms alike. A specimen with this much character is a memorable gift for a mineral collector, a geologist or someone who appreciates raw natural forms. Its weight and size give it real presence, and this is the exact piece shown.

The formation is about 12 inches long, 5 inches wide and 4 inches tall. Expect natural rough edges and texture; it has not been polished.

About Alligator Quartz

Alligator quartz, also called jacare or elestial quartz, grows with many small terminations stacked in layers, giving a ridged, scaly look. Smoky quartz is colored brown by natural radiation acting on trace aluminum, and Brazil is a major source.

Stone Meaning: Smoky quartz is traditionally associated with grounding.
