The texture would be glass-like.
The size of crystals decreases as the cooling increases. This is called an inverse relationship.

When igneous rocks cool quickly, they have small crystals and have a texture that may be described as aphanitic. When igneous rocks cool slowly, they have much larger crystals and have a texture that may be described as phaneritic or pegmatitic.
The rate at which the igneous rock cools controls grain size. Slower cooling results in larger crystals while faster cooling results in smaller crystals.
It depends on the cooling of lava. Slow cooling forms big crystals deep under the surface while fast cooling creates small crystals on or just below the earths surface. Itstant cooling wouls have no crystals.

Extrusive is when Igneous rock is formed from magma below Earth's surface.
the cooling and solidification of molten magma or lava. This process occurs either underneath the Earth's surface, resulting in intrusive igneous rocks, or on the surface, leading to extrusive igneous rocks. The rate of cooling determines the texture and crystal size of the rock, with slower cooling allowing for larger crystals to form.

They form from the extremely rapid cooling of lava or magma. The quick cooling does not allow time for the crystallization of minerals, resulting in the formation of a natural glass.
The rate at which the igneous rock cools controls grain size. Slower cooling results in larger crystals while faster cooling results in smaller crystals.
If an igneous rock is formed from slowly cooling magma under the ground, it has more time to form crystals and so the crystals it forms are much larger than igneous rock formed from more quickly cooling magma or lava.
slower rates of cooling will create larger crystals, rapid cooling allows little time for element accumulation in the crystal, therefore, the crystals created will be smaller. larger, visible crystals in igneous rock indicate that the magma was slow cooling, usually at depth. much smaller crystals in igneous rock indicate rapid cooling of lava, usually at or near the surface. crystals in igneous rock will grow larger and have more to accumulate material for their growth the more they have at their crystallization temperature.
Phaneritic.
