A masterclass in natural geometry. This 160g Smoky Amethyst Spirit Quartz cluster is a textbook example of the rare 'cactus' morphology, where a central primary crystal is completely enveloped by a secondary druse of micro-terminations. We selected this piece for its moody, dual-tone saturation and its fascinating history; while often erroneously attributed to the Magaliesberg Mountains, this specimen comes from the true geological source at Boekenhouthoek. Its compact size and intense sparkle make it a shimmering highlight for any systematic quartz collection.
