Alligator Smoky Quartz Cluster with Inclusions - One of a Kind, 4 In

Why is it called alligator quartz? The name comes from Brazil, where jacare, Portuguese for alligator, describes the ridged surface of this kind of smoky quartz.

This compact cluster brings that textured look together with inclusions you can see inside the crystal, so there is detail on the surface and within it. Smoky brown quartz pairs easily with wood, leather and dark shelving, and it holds up well next to a lamp, where light picks out the layers. It is small enough for a desk or windowsill and has enough character to sit in a quartz collection beside larger pieces. Give it to someone who likes earthy tones or who is just starting to explore quartz varieties.

About Alligator Smoky Quartz

Alligator quartz is commonly marketed as smoky elestial, a skeletal quartz whose edges grew faster than its faces and left layered, recessed surfaces. Smoky quartz gets its brown to gray color when natural radiation activates color centers around trace aluminum. It is the national gemstone of Scotland, where it is called cairngorm.

Stone Meaning: Smoky quartz is traditionally associated with grounding and calm.
