Clear Quartz Tower - Exceptional Clarity
A beautifully transparent quartz crystal tower with minor inclusions.
This piece has been cut with one side longer than the other, giving it an asymmetrical appearance.
Quartz towers are typically produced from massive quartz rather than terminated quartz crystals. However, finding large sections of this purity is not easy.
Inclusion-free quartz is highly sought after, but cutting shapes such as towers and balls creates considerable waste. This pushes up the price of clearer quartz compared to those with more inclusions.
Mass-produced quartz from China, particularly polished pieces, are often made from glass or low-grade natural quartz that's been modified.
The wider shape of this crystal tower and its exceptional clarity make it a unique and desirable piece.
