Raw Quartz Cluster / Geode Fragment

The item is an irregular, nodular specimen of what appears to be a quartz cluster or geode fragment. Its physical characteristics include a generally translucent to opaque body with a milky white to light beige coloration, exhibiting some areas of faint orange or rust-colored staining, likely from iron inclusions or surface contaminants. The surface is highly textured and uneven, with numerous small crystal formations, bumps, and divots. The overall shape is amorphous, suggesting it is a natural, unworked piece rather than a cut or polished gemstone. There are visible crystalline facets on some surfaces, particularly where smaller individual crystals protrude. The material appears to have a vitreous (glass-like) to dull luster in various areas, consistent with quartz. No obvious signs of repair are present, and its condition seems to be in its natural state, with no significant breakage indicating recent damage. The rough, unrefined nature of the piece indicates it is a raw mineral specimen, likely extracted directly from a geological formation. There are no discernible maker's marks, signatures, or stamps, which is typical for such natural samples. Its estimated age is geological, given its natural formation, and its style period is simply 'natural formation' or 'raw geological specimen'. The quality indicators include the clarity of some crystalline areas and the overall formation of a cluster.
