Weight: 65g
Dimensions: 2.5 x 1.8 x 1.2”
Locale: Gaumukh Mine, Manihar, Kullu District, Himachal Pradesh, India (Himalayas)

This gorgeous high-altitude Quartz from the Himalayan Mountains has beautiful clarity, rich green chlorite inclusions, and delicate golden Rutile sprays inside. 

The way these two points intersect is so beautiful! I especially love the contrast between the water-clear bottom point, and the top point which is absolutely packed with green Chlorite and delicate golden Rutile needles. The combination gives this piece such incredible aesthetics!

What makes Himalayan Quartz even more remarkable is the journey these crystals take before reaching collectors. Recovered from elevations exceeding 10,000 feet, these specimens come from some of the most rugged and unforgiving mountain environments in the world. The steep terrain, unpredictable weather, thin mountain air, and remote locations make extraction incredibly challenging and, at times, dangerous. Each specimen is a beautiful reminder of both the incredible forces of nature and the extraordinary effort required to bring these treasures down from the mountains.

Natural specimens may have fractures, stress marks, healed cracks, growth contacts, or pits. Colors may vary depending on lighting and screen settings. Please review all photos and videos carefully, as you will receive the exact piece shown.
