Rutilated Quartz
Rutilated Quartz is prized for its striking needle-like inclusions of golden or silvery rutile suspended within clear quartz. Each piece is naturally unique, with intricate formations that create a sense of movement and depth. Highly sought after by collectors, exceptional specimens combine clarity, strong rutile patterns, and beautiful natural character.
Hematite Rutile Included Quartz:
Hematite Rutile Included Quartz is a particularly captivating variety, featuring fine rutile needles alongside rich red , coppery, or metallic hematite inclusions. The contrast within the quartz creates incredible visual depth and complexity. Rare and distinctive, each specimen showcases a one-of-a-kind natural composition, making these pieces especially appealing to discerning collectors.
Pink Tourmaline
Pink Tourmaline is loved for its beautiful range of soft blush through to vivid raspberry and
magenta tones. Its colour can appear delicate and luminous or rich and saturated, depending on the specimen. High-quality crystals with strong colour, excellent
transparency and well-defined form are particularly desirable among mineral collectors.
Tanzanite:
Tanzanite is an exceptionally rare gemstone found in only one known commercial location: the Merelani Hills of Tanzania. Its captivating blue-to-violet colour and remarkable pleochroism can reveal different hues as the crystal moves in the light. Fine Tanzanite specimens are treasured for their rarity, colour, clarity, and unmistakable visual character.
Amethyst Vera Cruz:
Vera Cruz Amethyst, from Mexico, is celebrated for its delicate lilac colour, exceptional clarity, and elegant, slender crystal formations. Often found as delicate clusters or
beautifully formed individual points, these crystals have a distinctive ethereal quality. Fine specimens are highly collectible, particularly those displaying excellent transparency and natural, undamaged terminations.
Prehnite:
Prehnite is admired for its soft green to yellow-green colour and luminous, almost glowing
appearance, It often forms in delicate botryoidal masses or attractive crystal aggregates,
sometimes accompanied by contrasting inclusions. Its gentle translucency and organic
forms make it a beautiful addition to a mineral collection, particularly when the specimen has exceptional colour and lustre.
Herkimer Diamond:
Herkimer Diamonds are exceptionally clear, naturally double-terminated quartz crystals
found primarily in Herkimer County, New York. Despite their name, they are quartz rather than diamond. Their sparkling clarity, distinctive terminations and naturally faceted
appearance make them highly desirable. Exceptional specimens can display remarkable transparency and an almost jewel-like brilliance.
Dumortierite
Dumortierite is a distinctive mineral known for its rich blue to violet-blue colour, sometimes appearing almost indigo. It can occur as fibrous or granular aggregates and is particularly striking when the colour is intense and evenly distributed. Beautiful specimens showcase its deep, sophisticated tones and make a wonderful addition to a curated collection.
