I call this one "the whale"! The point curves and has a smaller point sticking out of it, appearing like a breaching whale.

Smoky quartz from the Erongo region is typically a quite dark brown-black color, with lower clarity due to natural inclusions, and a flat surface luster caused by etching. It grows sculptural angular points with nice striations. Paired with hyalite, the smoky quartz takes on a witchy appearance. I would dub these points "witch's fingers" but there is already a variety of quartz called that so I use "witch's manicure" instead. 

Smoky quartz gets its dark coloration from trace elements that tint dark when the quartz is exposed to natural radiation. Don’t worry, the specimen can't expose you to radiation—even if the hyalite turns "radioactive" green under UV light due to trace elements of uranium.

Hyalite is a form of opal, which in turn is part of the broader quartz family. Related minerals commonly grow together because they have similar requirements for growth: in this case, the availability of silica that is the basis for the quartz family. Growing conditions that initially produced quartz changed, and a later generation of growth deposited the less common hyalite on the specimen.

Hyalite displays botryoidal growth (bunches of “grape-like” round crystals) with a glossy high luster like a layer of bubbles. I think it looks like mermaid caviar! Hyalite can appear fluid with formations that look like the splash from a drip frozen in place, or as if the edge has been peeled up away from the quartz like a tutu. 

Near the base of the "flipper," there is a cluster of fine needle-like growth crystals which I don't believe is hyalite, but may simply be quartz needles. Some appear capped almost like miniature quartz scepter. On other specimens the ends appear cubic and can take on a purple amethyst hue. It's possible they are actually extremely small fluorite crystals, since this fluorite from this locale tends to have a cubic crystal habit.

UV reactivity Hyalite is so strongly UV reactive that you can see it in sunlight. Under indoor lighting it is pale yellow to golden in color, but turns visibly greenish yellow when exposed to the UV in sunlight. 395nm UV fluoresces a strong green, with an icy blue undertone. Best viewed in darker conditions. 365nm UV fluoresces a strong yellowish-green color, generally visible even in bright lighting. No phosphorescence detected.

Great product
Size: 9.3" x 9.7" x 1.8"
I recently installed the BOSCH 6029C HEPA Cabin Air Filter, and the difference was noticeable right away. The air inside my car feels much cleaner and fresher, especially when driving in traffic or through areas with a lot of dust and pollution. It does a great job filtering out odors, pollen, and even fine particles—I’ve had fewer allergy issues since switching to this filter. Installation was straightforward and only took a few minutes, even without much mechanical experience. The build quality is solid, and it fits perfectly without any gaps or issues. Compared to standard cabin filters, this HEPA version is definitely a step up in terms of filtration performance. Overall, I’d highly recommend this to anyone looking to improve their in-car air quality. It’s a small upgrade that makes a big difference in comfort, especially for daily drivers or people sensitive to allergens.

Good quality!
Size: 9.3" x 9.7" x 1.8"
This cabin air filter is seriously a game-changer for my car's interior air quality. I was getting tired of that stale, dusty smell every time I turned on the AC. Swapping it out was surprisingly easy, and the difference was noticeable almost immediately. It really does trap all those tiny particles, like pollen and dust, that used to make my allergies flare up. Now, the air inside my vehicle feels so much fresher and cleaner. I've been recommending this brand to all my friends who are looking for a reliable filter. It's definitely worth the investment for a more comfortable driving experience. Seriously, if you're on the fence, just go for it!

Noticeable upgrade in air quality and a seamless installation
Size: 9.3" x 9.7" x 1.8"
I'm generally skeptical of the "HEPA" marketing for automotive filters, but after installing this in my Honda, the reduction in exterior odors—especially exhaust and pollen—is actually significant. The construction feels far more robust than the flimsy OEM paper filters I’ve used in the past; the pleats are dense and well-reinforced, which gives me more confidence in its filtration efficacy over a 12,000-mile interval. Installation was straightforward and took less than five minutes. It’s a precision fit with no gaps around the edges, ensuring that all intake air is actually being routed through the media rather than bypassing it. One thing to note is that you might notice a very slight decrease in max fan velocity due to the increased density of the HEPA material, but the tradeoff for cleaner air is well worth it in my opinion. If you live in an area with high pollution or suffer from seasonal allergies, this is a legitimate quality-of-life improvement for your daily commute.

Exact fit!
Size: 9.3" x 9.7" x 1.8"
Was a great replacement for OE on my 2012 Honda Accord. It was the exact same size as the previous filter and has no strange smells or odors. Very easy to install behind the glove box and looks great!
