This beautiful high-altitude Quartz from the Himalaya Mountains has amazing clarity, with clear crystal points rising from a rich green Chlorite-covered base. The natural formations and gorgeous contrast between the clear Quartz and deep green make this piece a real eye-catcher!

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.
