NLB-SKULL-20
No carver could plan what nature hid inside the quartz: black tourmaline rods slice right through the clear crystal, so the finished skull looks different from any side.
It is beautifully detailed and substantial at about 5.5 inches, a standout for a collection, an altar, a study or a gothic interior. It is a significant gift for a serious crystal or skull collector. This is the exact skull shown.
The skull is about 5.5 by 4.25 by 4 inches. Natural fractures around the tourmaline rods are part of the stone. Light behind it shows the rods most clearly. Look through every photo to see how the rods run through the carving. A skull like this is a piece you will keep finding new details in.
Tourmalinated quartz forms when black tourmaline crystals grow first and are later enclosed by growing quartz. Black tourmaline, or schorl, has a hardness of 7 to 7.5, about the same as quartz.
Stone Meaning: Tourmalinated quartz is traditionally associated with protection and balance.
