A Rock Crystal Sphere 12.5 cm is a hand-polished sphere made from pure, natural quartz of impressive size – clear, flawless, and of timeless beauty. At this scale, rock crystal unfolds its full visual effect: light refracts within the perfectly round shape, bringing the finest inclusions, veils, and natural structures to life, making each piece a truly unique one-of-a-kind.

Mineralogical Properties of Rock Crystal

Rock crystal is the purest and clearest variety of the mineral quartz (SiO₂) and is one of the most common, yet at the same time most fascinating minerals on Earth. Its characteristic transparency results from an especially pure crystal structure that grew deep within the Earth over millions of years. Cut into a sphere, the stone displays its brilliance from all sides at once.
