The Gibraltar
Shape represents a great deal of impact when considering the artistic and visual value for rock quartz "slabs". This unique example rests on a solid bedrock foundation and the growth plate surface contains a wide array of young spire creations patterned around early radius mounds and angled pre-growth topography. While not freestanding, The Gibraltar possesses display versatility via a balanced center of gravity and low surface height growth. Most areas are nearly colorless with a trend toward milky white highlighted by a captivating array of light yellow inclusions. Deep rusty pockets and a light coating of "pepper flakes" add to the overall ambience. A light gathering/reflection score of 7.8 out of 10 is high for a slab formation and the broad focal point of the shape makes this specimen perfect for bookshelf or side table display.
