This is an exceptionally vibrant ferruginous quartz from Tinejdad, with one of the truest red colourations I’ve seen in quartz from any locality. The saturation is intense, even rivalling some of the finer Orange River material we see from southern Africa.
The composition is sculptural and beautifully balanced, with crisp, well formed quartz points rising through the front. In natural daylight the colour becomes incredibly lively, with a bright luster on the patina and a sparkling druzy section across the back adding another layer of texture.
There is some rougher growth through the rear, but the front is sensationally well defined, with excellent form and a very strong display angle. At only 39mm, it has enormous presence for its size and sits beautifully on a display base.
