Q is for Quartz

Another mineral for this A-Z, quartz on a Moroccan stamp sent just in the last few weeks (and saving me from going with Q is for Queen ;) .

Don't be fooled, this stamp is tiny (slightly smaller than a Royal Mail Machin definitive). It was issued last year in a set of 10 'Roches du Maroc'. I couldn't find a nice image of the set unfortunately.

 Sent on this lovely postcard from Eva.

    I hate it when a beautiful stamp is too tiny to really enjoy the image.

    A very original contribution for the Q and I love this stamp! Fortunately the scanned/blogged stamp is larger than the original so we can study more detaols now!

    Nice Q, I thought it was a shell at first, of course I should have read the text but the colour hit got my eyes first. Love the serene passage on the card.
