All auctions / Ancient Art / Rare green tourmaline-quartz- Ball from Brazil – 3 kg- 3001.21 g
This extraordinary tourmaline-quartz ball from Brazil is a fascinating natural one-of-a-kind with a particularly varied internal structure. In the bright, partially transparent to milky quartz matrix, numerous greenish-dark mineral inclusions are distributed, giving the sphere its unmistakable character. Particularly impressive is the interplay of clear and cloudy quartz, warm golden-yellow to earthy areas, and the contrasting green inclusions. Inside, natural fracture structures, fine lines, and different transparency zones are visible, so when the ball is rotated, new details repeatedly come to light. The polished high-gloss surface superbly showcases the depth and multi-layered nature of the material. With a weight of about 3 kg, the sphere also has an imposing presence and is ideally suited as an exclusive collectible or extraordinary decorative object. A rare single piece from Brazil, where the natural inclusions are not only a feature of the mineral but define its special optical appeal. Color variations, inner structures, natural cracks and inclusions belong to the individual character of this gemstone and make each sphere unique. Note: The stand shown is not included in the delivery, but can be purchased separately.
