This listing details an amazing Etched Quartz crystal from Serra Do Cabral Mountains shown in the photographs above. Each of these points has its own very unique features and characteristics. The small intricacies of each crystal make them perfect for mindfulness and meditation practices. Their color is truly unique. I had a hard time pinpointing it, as it varies depending on the mineral inclusions bonded to the crystal. Most have a Strawberry Blond to Grey hue with various phantoms, color zones, and geometric cubes. Some of the specimens in this series contain speckled, rhombohedron, or semi-cube shaped inclusions of hematite, calcite, and possibly brookite. These amazing inclusions are frozen within the crystal, reminding me of a snow globe display. In many cases the cubes have been etched/ dissolved rom the crystal leaving cube etching/ key patterns on the sides. There is also evidence of hydrothermal etching. Many sides of the crystal show where the heated solution dissolved the crystal, exposing old layers of the lattice. This combination of mineral inclusions, growth inhibition, rehealing/ regrowth, and hydrothermal etching has left each of these crystals as a piece of 'God made Art'. There is a variety of forms created both from crystal growth, keys, and the etching process. Truly these crystals have all the most amazing features quartz can offer. They are excellent examples of the variety of minerals quartz is able to bond with, the every changing growth conditions, and variety of growth characteristics.
These crystals are all great size for display, reki, meditation, and grids. Each is a world waiting to be discovered. Some may have a face or two on the termination that has been buffed along the natural plane. This is done as the crystals are cleaned at the mine to remove sharp or highly damaged area of the termination. I tried to capture any interesting characteristic that stands out or was aforementioned. The natural color varies from each crystal- from strawberry, golden, to slightly grey. We try our best to fully represent every angle of the item; however, if you have any questions about the specifics of this piece we are always happy to help.

I ship through USPS First Class Mail in order to offer low cost shipping. Unfortunately, this service is highly variable on shipping times, and is inconsistent in tracking international. Typically packages can arrive anywhere from 10-30 business days or longer.
