Item Description
Some of the finest crystallized Rose Quartz in the world is found in Brazil. This is a fine little specimen featuring a very gemmy, sharp and lustrous, pale pink color hexagonal crystal sitting aesthetically and perpendicularly atop a colorless doubly-terminated Quartz crystal forming a beautiful overall thumbnail. Good quality all around, and the Rose Quartz is even crystallized on the back Typically even small Rose Quartz crystals have a bit of a "milky" quality to them, but the crystal on this specimen is nearly water-clear. This specimen is many years old, and came out at a time when some of the best Rose Quartz crystals were finding their way out of Brazil.
