AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Splendid specimen of Faden quartz, colorless variety, originating from the well-known locality of Tole, Wana, in South Waziristan, Pakistan. The piece presents as an aggregate of perfectly transparent crystals, many of them biterminated, traversed by the characteristic filamentous white line (the "Faden", German for "thread") that testifies to the particular growth genesis of this quartz variety, due to recrystallization along a crack that is progressively opening. The ensemble of crystals, well defined and arranged in a harmonious way, gives the piece a particularly aesthetic and scenographic appearance. These features add aesthetic and mineralogical value to the piece.
It is an ideal specimen for mineral collections, display, and for those who appreciate the natural beauty of minerals, also in the context of crystal therapy and lithotherapy, according to the properties traditionally associated with the mineral species.
All minerals are 100% natural and untreated, with rare exceptions always indicated in the description. Photographs are taken with professional lighting to best enhance colors and details; however, slight variations in hue may occur depending on the device or ambient light.
Shipping is carried out via reliable and selected express couriers, with fast delivery (in many cases 1-2 business days in Europe), tracked and insured shipping and professional, secure packaging, as confirmed by customer reviews. Deliveries can also take place the day after payment depending on the destination.
You can combine multiple purchases and receive them in a single shipment, even from auctions with different end dates, simply contacting us to arrange the consolidation. For important pieces, direct delivery by appointment to your home or at major European fairs is also available.
