Description
LARGE AND SPECTACULAR QUARTZ POINTBrazil
This is an exceptional and impressively large terminated Quartz point from Brazil. Of typical hexagonal section and finely polished, it displays large areas of considerable clarity, intermingled with planes and clouds of interior inclusions, ending in a clear termination. At 32 inches (81.3 cm) high, it is an impressive piece in its own right, but is presented here on a custom black granitic base, of tapering hexagonal section, polished to a high gloss, and fitted with two internal lights that bring the Quartz to scintillating life when turned on, illuminating every glowing internal detail. A superb specimen artfully integrated into a sculptural lapidary work to enhance its incredible natural beauty. The complete piece stands 58 inches (147 cm) high.
