Rock crystal is one of the most expensive and most popular gemstones, which has been known to people since ancient times. If we look at its chemical structure, it is the purest, limpid variety of crystalline quartz. It is formed by crystallisation from pure silicate hydrothermal solutions. Most often, crystal quartz forms pseudo-hexagonal crystals, which can be up to several decimetres long. Rock crystal is deposited in many localities all over the world, the most known is in the state of Minas Geraís in Brazil.

Uniqueness of the stone: For thousands of years it has been used to make jewellery, tools and cult objects; nowadays, rock crystal plays also a significant role in optics and electronics.

Use: Our rough stones are a beautiful interior adornment – filling up a vase, fountain or a lamp with them creates an original design. In the exterior, they may be a perfect decoration of gardens. They are also suitable for mineralogist collections and exhibitions. Rough minerals may also be further processed, e.g. small crystals are ideal material for pendants.

About the product: To retain the standard colour and quality of the minerals, we carefully pick the best pieces and clean them. Points EXQ are sold in 1 kg bags and they are available in size S, M and L. EXTRA quality points are distinguished by higher level of translucence and luster.
