Clear Quartz Point Carved Block of natural Clear Quartz - Height: 108 mm - Width: 49 mm- 323 g - (1)

Elegantly Quartz Point — a refined clear quartz obelisk, shaped and polished to emphasize its transparency and the fascinating internal inclusions, testimony to its natural growth in Brazil. — This specimen consists of a meticulously worked and polished clear quartz crystal (SiO₂) fashioned into an obelisk. Clear quartz, or rock crystal, is the transparent macrocrystalline variety of quartz, characterized by its hexagonal structure. The obelisk cut, with its flat faces and faceted apex, is not accidental but serves to highlight the mineral’s natural optical properties and intrinsic purity. The surface is perfectly polished, allowing a clear view into the crystal’s interior. Visually, it reveals predominant clarity, interspersed with intriguing internal haziness and inclusions that create complex and dynamic optical effects. You can observe cloudier zones and natural growth fractures that have sealed over time, often forming true “ghosts” of crystal growth, i.e., outlines of previous growth phases. These features, far from being flaws, represent the crystal’s geologic history, offering remarkable visual depth and aesthetic interest. The provenance from Brazilian deposits is well known for producing high-quality quartz, both in rough and worked form. Brazil is a geologically rich region of hydrothermal veins and pegmatites that have fostered the growth of quartz crystals of exceptional size and purity. The formation of this quartz dates back to geologic processes millions of years ago, where silica-saturated solutions slowly crystallized within rock cavities. Aesthetically, the obelisk presents a slender, balanced shape, making it a piece of strong visual impact. The internal inclusions and hazes catch the light and create unique refraction play, ensuring that every viewing angle is distinct. The quality of workmanship and the luster of the surfaces contribute to an intrinsic elegance that makes the piece suitable for a variety of display contexts. The condition is excellent, with no signs of damage or restoration. The crystal is intact and the polishing is impeccably maintained, as attested by the supplied images. The base of the obelisk is flat and stable, allowing safe and elevated display on any surface. This clear quartz obelisk represents a specimen of notable collecting value, combining the mineral’s natural beauty with the precision of craftsmanship. It is a piece that stands out for its transparency, the richness of its internal inclusions, and its provenance. Ideal for mineral collectors who appreciate the fusion of lapidary art and geological wonders, as well as for those seeking a refined decorative element with a deep and fascinating geological history.
