AUSSIE CLEAR QUARTZ CRYSTAL
Aussie Clear Quartz Crystal for sale. This one will not last long as quality like this is hard to come by. Stunning clarity when you look through this crystal and fairly heavy to hold. At 601g this Crystal is large and there are a few imperfections (a small dint on one edge near tip) but this is the way it came out of the Earth. Definitely one for the quartz collector. Australian quartz does not get much better than this and is in short supply. We were lucky to obtain this beautiful specimen. Feels great to hold and would suit an addition as a great Aussie classic to your crystal collection or would serve well as a healing crystal for cleansing and amplifying.

BLACK JADE NEPHRITE SLAB THIN
Good Black Jade Nephrite Slab Thin. Polishes to a very high luster, which is perfect for creating stunning quality Black Jade mirror finish jewellery and pendants. It was an exercise to see how thin a saw could cut the Jade. 2mm down to next to nothing in thickness 0.8mm. This material will polish to a stunning black luster. Nephrite Jade is the toughest of all naturally occurring materials. Nephrite Jade has been used from ancient times as jewellery, tools and weapons. This particular Slab is Top grade and the blackest of black jade – basically the best you can get. I believe it was mined in the 1970’s from Cowell.
