Description
FOREST FIRE is an extraordinary rock crystal specimen with rutile and chlorite from the Himalayas. The clear to transparent main crystal features a pronounced termination and combines greenish chlorite with warm gold- to copper-colored rutile structures.
Particularly fascinating is the interplay of the different minerals. Greenish chlorite provides a cool, earthy contrast to the warm metallic tones of the rutile, while the clarity of the quartz allows the individual mineral structures and inclusions to be observed in remarkable detail.
Depending on the viewing angle and light, reflections and subtle refractions reveal new internal structures and create a remarkable sense of depth. A laterally grown companion crystal adds further dimension and dynamism to the formation, giving FOREST FIRE a distinctive sculptural architecture.
Weighing 215 g and measuring approximately 89 mm in height, FOREST FIRE is a compact yet highly expressive collector’s specimen with a strong visual presence.
The combination of clear Himalayan rock crystal, warm-toned rutile, greenish chlorite, and its distinctive crystal architecture makes FOREST FIRE a unique and highly individual specimen.
