Dissolution Quartz 2.9 inch or 7.4 cm Long- Serra Do Cabral Mountains, Brazil- Perfect Thumb Key, Galaxy Plane, Trigonic, 'Ice Quartz'- HD55

Detailed here is an amazing and unique hydrothermal etched quartz crystal from the Serra Do Cabral Mountains in Brazil. These are newly found and directly imported from the mine. Hydrothermal etching occurs when formed and terminated crystals are subjected to various high temperature (and sometimes acidic) solutions. These high heat solutions will melt and etch the exterior of the crystal. Variances in temperature, duration of exposure, ratio of silica, and acidity levels will create a variety of formations and etchings on the crystals surface. Also differences in the thermal resistance of bonds within the crystal lattice can expose geometric forms. This unique and rare process creates a multitude of planes, faces, crevices, and dynamic formations on these crystals. Some crystals will even be etched, and then re-healed/ continue to grow later. Crystals etched in this manner are quite rare as conditions must be just perfect, and exposure time cannot be too long (or the crystal will melt to an unrecognizable form).

These crystals grow in very dynamic, changing environments. Exposed to high temperature water solutions as times, and steady growth at others. These crystals are perfect tools for trauma healing, self discovery/expression, and dealing with abrupt life changes. The synthesis of the integrated / geometric forms of the crystal lattice and the chaotic flow of the imprint of the melting solution reminds us to change, adapt, and heal under life's pressures. The contrast between rigid geometric planes, and flowing edges and glyphs is quite unique, and brings to mind the duality of the universe and the Self. Etched crystals are said in lore to be encoded with a variety of information. Many of these crystals display trigons, record keepers, and unique textures. The incredible, and detailed textures can be hard to capture fully on camera, and these crystals truly come to life in person.
