Description

10″ Natural Quartz Crystal Group – Large Clear Quartz Cluster Display Specimen

This impressive 10-inch Natural Quartz Crystal Group is a substantial and visually striking formation featuring multiple intergrown Quartz points rising from a shared matrix. Its size, clarity, and architectural crystal structure make it an exceptional display piece for collectors, interior designers, crystal enthusiasts, and anyone seeking a dramatic natural centrepiece.

You will receive the exact Quartz cluster shown in the photographs. A 1 cm scale cube is included to provide accurate size reference, with full measurements visible in the images. Carefully chosen for its crystal quality, form, and overall aesthetic appeal, this cluster is a standout natural specimen.

All of our crystals are 100% genuine specimens, each supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity.

Geological Background – Formation of Quartz Clusters

Quartz (SiO₂) is one of the most widespread and geologically significant minerals on the planet, forming in a wide range of environments. Large Quartz crystal groups like this develop within hydrothermal veins, pegmatites, and volcanic cavities, where silica-rich fluids slowly cool and deposit layers of crystalline silica over long periods.

As conditions stabilise, Quartz crystals grow outward from a host matrix, often forming dramatic clusters of prismatic crystals. Their clarity and size depend on temperature, pressure, impurity levels, and growth duration. Many clusters form in open pockets known as vugs or geodes, where unrestricted growth allows for long, sharply terminated crystals.

Quartz’s durability—ranking 7 on the Mohs scale—ensures these formations remain robust and well-preserved over millions of years.

Crystal Type, Structure & Mineral Characteristics

Quartz belongs to the tectosilicate class of minerals and crystallises in the hexagonal crystal system, most commonly forming six-sided prisms that terminate in a six-faced pyramid.

Key attributes of this 10″ Quartz Crystal Group include:

• Multiple well-formed prismatic points, displaying natural hexagonal structure
• Sharp terminations, typical of high-quality Quartz
• Clear to translucent bodies, allowing light to pass through with brilliance
• Internal clarity features, such as veils, phantoms, or rainbow inclusions depending on the angle of light
• Intergrown growth, creating a striking architectural arrangement
• Natural colouration, typically clear, icy white, or slightly milky depending on internal structure

Quartz clusters often display optical effects such as light refraction, internal rainbows created by micro-fractures, and faint phantom lines marking earlier growth stages.

Locality & Geological Interest

Quartz clusters of this size generally form within regions experiencing hydrothermal activity or deep volcanic processes. Silica-rich fluids circulate through fractures and cooling magma bodies, depositing quartz layer by layer. As conditions fluctuate, various associated minerals may also develop nearby, including calcite, feldspar, fluorite, and other silica varieties.

Each Quartz cluster represents a geological snapshot of these ancient processes, making them highly valued for both scientific and decorative reasons.

Decorative, Collecting & Display Appeal

Large Quartz crystal groups are highly sought after due to their dramatic presence, sparkling clarity, and versatile aesthetic. This 10″ cluster is ideal for:

• Mineral and crystal collections
• Home décor and interior design showpieces
• Meditation or spiritual environments
• Photography, videography, and artistic staging
• Gifts for lovers of natural history and geology

Quartz’s clean, neutral palette complements all interior styles—from modern minimalist to rustic natural—making it a timeless decorative mineral.
