Small (1” long) fossilized spiralite quartz druzy seashell.
50 million to 100 million years ago, during the Crustaceous period, India was submerged by a prehistoric ocean. During that period, rare coiled gastropods lived and died; and have since been discovered in the form of these fossilized quartz druzy shells. They are found embedded in hard rock, so they must be extracted, chiseled, and cleaned by hand! 🐚
Disclaimer: Crystals are natural products from the earth and are not always “perfect”. Some may have surface marks, inclusions, vugs (cavities) and/or natural chips. Also, many carvings are hand carved and may not be as pristine as a machine carved piece.
We do our best to ensure our crystals are photographed to show all angles, but occasionally, smaller natural marks may not show up correctly or be photographed up close. Please feel free to reach out before purchasing if you want to see anything in more detail.
We will always disclose damage that is not natural i.e. a broken crystal. If a crystal arrives broken, please reach out and we can help with initiating a claim, when applicable.
