FOREST FIRE | Rutilated quartz with chlorite from the Himalayas | 108 g

FOREST FIRE is an extraordinary rock crystal specimen with rutile and chlorite from the Himalayas. The clear main crystal is accompanied by warm gold- to copper-colored rutile and greenish chlorite, creating a striking interplay of color, transparency, and mineral structure.

At the center of the specimen rises a well-defined rock crystal with a pronounced termination and distinct crystal faces. Surrounding crystals and mineral growth create a complex, almost sculptural architecture, giving FOREST FIRE remarkable depth despite its compact dimensions.

Depending on the viewing angle and light, the rutile reveals warm golden-brown, bronze, and copper-colored reflections. Greenish chlorite provides a contrasting, cooler element, while small dark mineral deposits on selected crystal faces add further detail and character to the formation.

Weighing 108 g and measuring approximately 74 mm in height, FOREST FIRE is a compact yet exceptionally detailed collector’s specimen. Its combination of clear Himalayan quartz, warm-toned rutile, greenish chlorite, and complex crystal architecture makes it particularly compelling when viewed from different perspectives.

The distinctive contrast between clear quartz, fiery rutile tones, and green chlorite gives FOREST FIRE its name and makes it a unique Himalayan mineral specimen for a sophisticated collection.
