An outstanding and exceptionally clear Quartz cluster from the renowned Arrowhead Mine in Hot Springs, Arkansas, USA, elegantly mounted on a custom iron base.
This remarkable specimen comes from an old private collection and represents a fine example of the distinctive Quartz crystallisation associated with the Hot Springs district. The crystals display the characteristic form and exceptional transparency for which specimens from this locality are highly regarded, with beautifully defined crystal faces and a striking natural arrangement.
Hot Springs is one of the world’s classic localities for fine Quartz, where crystals formed from silica-rich hydrothermal fluids associated with the Ouachita Mountains. The area has produced celebrated Quartz specimens for generations, particularly from the historic mines around the Hot Springs district.
With its exceptional clarity, natural composition, provenance and imposing presence, this is far more than a mineral specimen — it is a true collector’s piece. Preserved from an earlier collection and presented as a sculptural object, it would make an outstanding addition to a serious mineral collection or an elegant natural-history interior.
A remarkable museum-quality Quartz specimen, representing both the geological character and collecting heritage of one of Arkansas’s most celebrated mineral localities.
