Quartz with flower-like inclusions
A Chinese trade name for Quartz with flower-like or cloudy internal features; the type of inclusions and whether fractures have been filled must be tested. This page compares how the major standards and institutions name it, what must be disclosed when selling it, whether it can be worn every day, how it is treated and identified, and which source each conclusion comes from.
Price, rarity and origin are outside the scope of this wiki.

Material research: formation, causes and history
What authoritative sources say about how this material forms, what causes its colour and optical effects, where its name comes from and how people have used it. Each statement carries an evidence grade and its sources; it describes the material in general, not any specific piece.
How it forms
Glue-flower quartz is an appearance-based trade name for quartz prized for flower- or cloud-like internal features. These features are generally linked to secondary fractures in the quartz and the secondary inclusions they capture: after crystal growth, tectonic or fluid activity fractures the crystal, the fractures heal, and secondary inclusions that cut across growth zones are trapped; secondary fluids entering along fractures can also create a cloud/flower look. Because such features may arise from natural fracture healing or may involve fissure filling, the exact mineral composition and the presence of any filling (e.g., resin injection, dyeing) require case-by-case testing, and the available authoritative sources do not define this trade name.
Scope: Used to explain the relationship between 'flower'-like / cloud-like internal features and secondary fractures and secondary inclusions; no determination is made of their specific composition or whether the material has been filled.

Supporting findings
After quartz growth, healed fractures can trap secondary inclusions that cut across growth zones.
Evidence grade AScope: The general mechanism for secondary inclusions; makes no claim about the age of fractures in a given sample.
Secondary fluids entering along fractures can produce flower- or cloud-like internal features, corresponding to the trade 'glue flower'.
Evidence grade BScope: Links secondary fluids to the appearance as an interpretive inference, hence rated B.
How it is identified
The colour and inclusion appearance of 'glue-flower-quartz' cannot establish whether a stone is natural, synthetic or treated: quartz varieties that look alike may differ entirely in composition, growth history and treatment, and synthetic and natural quartz share essentially the same composition and physical properties, so the unaided eye cannot separate them. Laboratory identification rests on measurable properties and the division of labour between instruments — a polariscope with a conoscope lens can judge colour-zoning orientation from extinction and optic-axis readings, a refractometer gives refractive-index values, and EDXRF with infrared spectroscopy supplies chemical and structural fingerprints. Limitations: some methods depend on how the stone was cut and on comparison with reference material, and the final conclusion must be issued by an accredited gemological laboratory through testing rather than inferred from appearance.
Evidence grade AScope: Identification and separation points; testing must be performed by an accredited gemological laboratory, and no self-test thresholds are given.

Other research findings
Glue-flower quartz is an appearance-based trade name, not a mineralogical name; the exact composition of its internal features is undefined in the available authoritative sources and requires testing.
Evidence grade CScope: A naming-boundary judgement; sources do not define this trade name.
The available authoritative sources do not address whether 'glue-flower quartz' has fissure filling (resin, dye, etc.); its treatment status requires testing.
Evidence grade CScope: States uncertainty about treatment; does not deny that some samples may be untreated.
Limits of this research
- Research status: Formation, occurrence or other material-specific findings found in authoritative sources
- 'Glue-flower quartz' is an appearance-based trade name; its internal composition and filling status are unsupported by authoritative sources, so those claims are rated C.
- No growth duration or absolute age, and no dating of the secondary fracturing event.

Whether a treatment has to show in the name differs between the two rule sets (this site’s paraphrase):
- GB/T 16552—2017: a method classed as treatment has to be stated in the name itself — the method put before the name, or added in brackets after it; a method classed as optimization does not need to appear in the name, though one marked “Optimization (annotation required)” still has to be noted in the quality documents.

- CIBJO Gemstone Book 2022: no longer splits treatments into ones that need specific disclosure and ones that need only general disclosure: every treatment is to be disclosed, and the seller tells the buyer which treatment was used and what special care it calls for.

What it is and how it's identified
The material facts for Quartz with flower-like inclusions are taken from GB/T 16553—2017 for rock crystal as a whole class, not measured on Quartz with flower-like inclusions separately. For rock crystal as a whole class, the structure is crystalline and trigonal, with hexagonal prismatic crystals showing distinct horizontal striations on the prism faces; there is no cleavage. For rock crystal as a whole class, density is 2.64–2.69 g/cm³, with a clause value of 2.66 and a tolerance of +0.03/−0.02, from which the limits of the range are derived. For rock crystal as a whole class, the optic character is anisotropic, uniaxial positive, possibly with a bull's-eye interference figure, and Brazil-law twinning is common in amethyst; refractive index is 1.544–1.553 and birefringence 0.009. For rock crystal as a whole class, pleochroism is weak and varies with colour, untreated; the lustre is vitreous, untreated. For rock crystal as a whole class, the cat's-eye effect can be seen as an optical effect, and asterism appears as six-rayed stars, mostly in rose quartz.
Registered material facts
Each row carries its own source and check date and can be cited on its own; “—” means the cited source gives no value, not “none”.
Chemical composition, luminescence, UV-visible spectrum, infrared spectrum, magnification: these whole-class features are given in the cited clause for rock crystal (the whole class), so they are not repeated on the Quartz with flower-like inclusions page; see the material facts on the Rock Crystal entry.
Items below that name the class they cover give the cited clause’s value for that whole class, not a measurement of Quartz with flower-like inclusions (how to read class-level values).

Who maintains this page
The material facts in the Quartz with flower-like inclusions entry are maintained by the LumaLark wiki and matched one by one to the standard clauses or institutional sources they cite: every fact carries its source (with a clause or page locator) and a check date, so it can be traced back to the original. The entry exists so that buyers and sellers can check naming, disclosure and material facts item by item.
