Probably not very many. I think the quartz crystals used in watches need to be... purer? than this one probably is, with all its sparkly inclusions. It's prettier as a big lump to look at, anyway. Β

Next step:
Add huge cat paws and sell for much money.
The shelter will expand and double its size.
Purrfect plan!

If only. These are behind glass in a museum. I think there would be stern words if I tried to abscond with one.

Why only one if you could have all of them?!

Before the Swiss adopted the metric system, four quartz equalled one gallon.Β

Yeah, I'm glad it came out clear, since I was shooting through glass.
