{"product_id":"red-tourmaline-in-quartz-freeform-41g","title":"Red Tourmaline in Quartz Freeform","description":"\u003cp\u003eA beautifully clear Quartz freeform containing striking needle-like crystals of red to deep reddish-brown Tourmaline. At 41g, this is a smaller piece, but the clarity of the Quartz makes the individual Tourmaline formations incredibly easy to see.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLong, slender crystals travel through the Quartz at different angles, appearing almost suspended inside the stone. Some form bold single lines while finer needles intersect and disappear deeper into the crystal. The contrast between the transparent Quartz and rich red-brown inclusions gives this piece a wonderfully graphic, almost architectural appearance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe faceted freeform cut is particularly effective here. Large polished windows allow you to look directly into the crystal, while the angled faces reflect and magnify different Tourmaline needles as the piece is turned. It is a fascinating little specimen for anyone who loves included Quartz and crystals where the mineral formation itself becomes the focus.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTourmaline in Quartz\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTourmaline in Quartz forms when Tourmaline crystals become enclosed by Quartz during the natural growth of the minerals. The resulting specimens can contain individual rods, fine needles or networks of Tourmaline visibly suspended within the transparent to translucent Quartz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTourmaline occurs in a wide range of colours depending on its composition. This specimen contains distinctive red to reddish-brown Tourmaline inclusions; the exact Tourmaline species has not been independently identified for this piece.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn crystal traditions, Tourmaline in Quartz is often associated with grounding, protection and balance, while Clear Quartz is traditionally linked with clarity and amplification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOften Associated With\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eProtection and grounding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClarity and focus\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBalance and stability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eConfidence and inner strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 41g\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 4.5cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eForm:\u003c\/strong\u003e Polished faceted freeform\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eColour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Clear Quartz with red to reddish-brown Tourmaline inclusions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity:\u003c\/strong\u003e One unique piece\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Raven's Nest Crystals","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54827392565581,"sku":null,"price":14.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0954\/5796\/8461\/files\/red-tourmaline-in-quartz-41g-faceted-freeform-front.png?v=1790275810","url":"https:\/\/www.ravensnestcrystals.co.uk\/products\/red-tourmaline-in-quartz-freeform-41g","provider":"Raven's Nest Crystals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
