PRODUCT INFORMATION
General Description
Rose Quartz is generally found in two regions of Madagascar, Ambatondrazaka and Antsirabe, the latter being considered the best deposit in the country. The regional material always has lovely colour intensity and gemmy clarity but this is variable depending on the grade. We select the top 20% of all material which ranges from a lighter pink with a girasol-like glow to a much darker shade of pink. On occasion, pieces may have differential colour intensity across a single piece or between pieces. Madagascar is renowned for the gemmy clarity of their Rose Quartz but tends to have lighter tones of pink. Star-Rose Quartz is the main material from the region which produces an asterism on a sphere. The same material is often used for points and other polished items such as bowls, standing free forms and gallets, however the asterism is not produced on these forms due to the missing geometry. Madagascar is a great source of top quality Rose Quartz material. Absolutely stunning and always a sought after product line in any retail or commercial space.Lazulite is a blue, Phosphate mineral containing Magnesium, Iron, and Aluminium Phosphate. Lazulite crystallizes in the monoclinic system but material from Madagascar is from a massive non-crystalline deposit. Lazulite is a fairly rare stone which has a range of colour intensities from lighter blue with sometimes banded colour distribution else more solid colours of deeper darker blue. The material itself tends to have minor specular-like ash flake looking inclusions. Nick selects from only the top 20% of material for the intensity of colour and quality polished finish.
