Mixed Rough Quartz Crystals (Bulk)

The image displays a substantial pile of rough, unpolished quartz crystals, predominantly clear to milky white with various inclusion colors. The individual pieces range significantly in size, from small chips likely under an inch to larger chunks several inches across, suggesting a bulk quantity rather than individually selected specimens. The material exhibits typical quartz characteristics, including a vitreous to greasy luster, conchoidal to uneven fractures, and varying degrees of transparency from near-transparent to opaque. Many pieces show natural crystal faces, though most appear to be broken or tumbled fragments rather than fully formed terminations. Color variations are notable, with the majority being white or off-white, cloudy 'snow quartz,' and some exhibiting light yellowish-brown 'smoky quartz' hues. Several pieces show hints of pink or reddish-brown inclusions, which could indicate iron staining or presence of minerals like hematite, possibly suggesting rose quartz within the lot, or just mineral deposits. The surface texture is rough and unrefined, typical of raw, unearthed crystals or material that has undergone minimal processing like simple washing. No discernable maker's marks, signatures, or specific manufacturing details are visible as these are natural geological formations. The overall condition appears to be natural and raw, with no signs of polishing, cutting, or repair; any 'damage' is consistent with natural breakage or extraction. The stones are resting on dark, possibly concrete or paver, surfaces, and some green grass is visible in the background, implying an outdoor setting. The craftsmanship is entirely natural, showcasing the raw beauty of the mineral.
