AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Elegant intaglio carved from natural pink quartz from Madagascar, worked in a vertical form with a flat base, faceted body, and pointed termination.
The specimen weighs 1107 grams and presents a delicate pale pink tone, softly and naturally distributed throughout the entire volume.
The surface has been carefully ground and polished, allowing light to penetrate the stone and highlight the internal structure of the quartz.
Inside, milky veils, thin natural fractures, zones that are more translucent, and subtle color variations are visible, adding depth to the material.
In some areas, light produces more intense reflections and small bright effects, while other areas appear more compact and opalescent.
The geometric workmanship particularly enhances these characteristics.
The longitudinal surfaces create different planes of reflection, while the upper part is shaped into a faceted termination that gives the object a slender and harmonious silhouette.
Pink quartz is a macrocrystalline variety of quartz, composed mainly of silicon dioxide, SiO₂.
Its pink coloration is linked to the presence of microscopic inclusions and structural defects within the crystal lattice.
Madagascar is one of the best-known locations for producing good-quality pink quartz, often appreciated for its delicate tones and good translucency.
The small inclusions, internal lines, and slight surface variations are natural characteristics of the material and make each piece unique.
A decorative specimen with great presence, suitable both for a mineral collection and as a display element in contemporary environments, studies, libraries, or Wunderkammer (cabinet of curiosities).
Mineral: Pink quartz
Composition: SiO₂
