Natural Real Citrine Obelisk Tower, AAA Water-Clear Honey Orange Citrine
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
AAA Natural Honey Orange Citrine Obelisk Tower: A Display of Exceptional Water-Clear Citrine Crystal
▫️ Description
Standing tall in its obelisk tower form, this natural citrine is an outstanding sculpture that blends Nature's perfect crystal with the highest level of craftsmanship. This citrine will surely become an extraordinary addition to any collection and a fabulous accent piece for your space.
The first thing to emphasize is the raw, unheated quality of this citrine. It not only ensures its rarity but also preserves the intact vibrations that set this specimen apart.
The water-clear interior of this citrine, adorned with natural inclusions and fractures that form swirls and waves, sparks curiosity about the formation of such pristine quartz. As light reflects and dances off these unique features, it creates the illusion of an inner glow and perpetual motion, adding to its rarity and allure.
We decided to keep the citrine specimen in the exact format it was found in nature and to further highlight the interior of the specimen, the faces were polished using cerium oxide (CeO2), giving it a world-class lapidary finish that is unseen in similar pieces.
Another highlight of this raw citrine point is its color, a color tone that is called "Honey Orange Citrine". This color tone can be fully appreciated under sunlight, as well as under a warm yellow light.
Quality-wise, this Citrine is of Super Extra (AAA) Grade, offering water-clear translucency, gorgeous aesthetics, and a beautiful tone of Honey Orange.
This Natural Citrine is specimen to be honored, sure to find its way to a prime spot in your collection or as a striking addition to your space. Please message us if you have a particular request or question and take a look at the video and at the details on the pictures. 🧡

Amethyst Crown Geode Slice with Sparkling Large Purple Druzy on Rotating Stand
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
Amethyst Geodes with Crown Formations are a rare form of Amethyst found exclusively in one mine. Unlike the usual amethyst druzy Formations, these geodes exhibit crystal points that create a crown-like structure, making them truly exceptional specimens. Whether you're a collector, decorator, or gallery owner, this rare and highly regarded amethyst geode deserves a prominent place in your collection, decor, or gallery.
The main highlight of this specimen is the crown Amethyst, the points face forward and are naturally decorated with tiny Golden Goethite needles, creating an overall sparkly brilliance that dazzles the eyes.
Another special characteristic is the exquisite beauty of its Amethyst matrix, which has been expertly polished to accentuate its natural colors and drawings.
It is a double sided slice and we chose a 360º rotating base, that way you can easily see the beauty of both sides. A project that started with the raw amethyst agate geode...

Antique, New and Vintage Natural Specimens
Natural specimens turn things found in nature, such as rocks, crystals and timber, into art. Sometimes these specimens are hand-carved into sculptures. Other times, antique, new and vintage natural specimens themselves are best displayed in their most untouched state. These pieces range from Victorian-era objects to modern-day designs and include everything from sculptures made from animal horns to works in wood, either as sculptures or merely imposing and provocative chunks of driftwood.
Natural specimens serve as compelling decor in any collection or home. Just as any curious decorative object, such as an ancient scientific instrument or taxidermy mount, will draw attention to your carefully curated home library or mantel, natural specimens can spark interesting discussions about life and art. Whether it’s a piece of ancient pottery formed from natural clay, plants sculpted from metal, sculptures of animals or antique stone, they grant a window into all of nature’s wonders.
Natural specimen sculptures can complement many aesthetics. A rare geode makes a stunning centerpiece in a study or living room. Crystals and rock crystal spheres carved in the 1970s add a sense of etherealness and quiet beauty to any space.
Whatever your taste, the selection of antique, new and vintage natural specimens on 1stDibs includes precisely the right piece for your space.
