Hold this amphibole quartz lens up to the light and the real show is inside it.
It has been tumbled and polished into a smooth lens, and the bright polish works as a window into the interior, where amphibole inclusions sit suspended in clear quartz. Turn it in the light and the scene shifts, which makes it a good stone to keep on a desk or bedside table and pick up often. At about 3 inches long and over 2 inches thick, it fills the palm comfortably. It makes a thoughtful gift for someone who collects inclusion quartz or loves stones with hidden detail. Because it is quartz, it is hard and keeps its polish well. This is the exact lens shown.
The lens is about 3 by 2.375 by 2.25 inches. Look at the in hand photo for scale.
Amphibole quartz is quartz with needle like inclusions of amphibole minerals such as hornblende, actinolite and tremolite. Brazil, especially Minas Gerais, is the main commercial source. Quartz is silicon dioxide and takes a brilliant, glassy polish.
Stone Meaning: Amphibole quartz is traditionally associated with tranquility and spiritual connection.
