7 pounds/ 15.7 ounces
3620.5 grams
18,102.5 carats
NOTE: This was sold to me as
quartz, but it’s likely that it’s made from glass or reconstituted quartz. My best
guess is glass, so I’m categorizing it as glass. I acquired this at a time when
I didn’t know much about crystals: the difference among natural, synthetic, created,
etc.
This material is STILL being
offered online as natural, but buyer beware! GLASS! GLASS! GLASS!
There IS a natural strawberry
quartz, but this isn’t it! Caveat Emptor!!!
Still, this is a cool piece, but I
likely overpaid for it (as I recall, I paid $100 – yikes!!!). Its origins
should have been disclosed, but, unfortunately, this area of collecting is
filled with bad actors.
Learn and live!
