Rare Faden & Etched Quartz Cluster on Matrix - Pakistan

Presenting a specialized and fascinating collector's specimen, weighing a precise 43 Grams (equivalent to 215 Carats). This piece features a cluster of Quartz  crystals that display the rare Faden Quartz habit and unique Etched surface features.

Faden Quartz (German for 'thread') is known for the opaque white line running through the crystal, signifying natural fracturing and self-healing under tectonic stress. The Etched surfaces show dissolution patterns from mineral-rich fluids, creating an intricate, sculptural texture.

Sourced from the mineral-rich regions of Pakistan, this impressive miniature measures a precise 71 x 45 x 34 mm.

Specimen Highlights:

1. Dual Rare Habit: The combination of the internal Faden feature and the external Etching makes this specimen geologically complex and highly desirable for collectors specializing in unique crystal growth habits.

2. Aesthetic Texture: The Etched surfaces provide a striking contrast to the clarity of the Quartz and beautifully highlight the internal white Faden lines.

3. Matrix Presentation: The Faden/Etched Quartz crystals are naturally anchored to a host Quartz matrix, creating a stable and aesthetic display piece.

4. Healing Energy: This piece is a powerful symbol of resilience, combining the self-healing energy of Faden Quartz with the clarity and amplification of Etched Quartz.
