Etched Quartz Scepter with Rainbow Inclusion – Pakistan

Directly from the world-renowned alpine-type veins of Skardu, this 42.9g specimen showcases the rare and sought-after Scepter habit. This formation occurs when a second generation of quartz grows over an existing crystal point, creating a distinctive "crown" or scepter head.

The surfaces of this crystal are beautifully etched, a natural phenomenon caused by geological fluids late in the crystal's growth, resulting in a complex, matte-to-glassy texture that feels ancient and sculptural. Inside the crystal's depths lies a spectacular rainbow inclusion, created by a microscopic thin-film interference within a natural fracture, flashing iridescent colors as you rotate the piece. This is a 100% natural, untreated, and highly aesthetic "floater-quality" specimen.
