About this specimen

Dimensions: 2.7 × 2.0 × 5.4 cm (1.06 × 0.79 × 2.13 in); longest edge 54 mm (2.13 in).

Several quartz terminations rise from an etched central crystal in this compact floater from Xuebaoding, Sichuan, China. Clear upper faces contrast with the more softly textured lower body, while small attached crystals give the specimen an uneven, branching profile. Its free-growing base is part of the same piece.

The photographs show the front and reverse, and an additional frame from the specimen video reveals its narrower side. These views show how the grouped tips sit around the main crystal and how the surface texture changes as the piece turns. This listing is for the exact individual specimen shown.

At 5.4 cm tall and 34 g, it is a compact addition to a quartz collection. The dimensions and weight below are measured values.
