Group of three cabochons of dendritic quartz from Minas Gerais, Brazil. Each stone contains fine, fern-like inclusions of manganese and iron oxides, creating natural “landscape” patterns suspended within clear quartz. These inclusions, often resembling trees or branches, give dendritic quartz its name and make every piece completely unique.
Minas Gerais is one of Brazil’s most important gem-producing regions, renowned for its diversity of quartz varieties. Dendritic quartz from this locality is highly valued by collectors for the clarity of the host quartz and the sharp definition of its inclusions, which appear like miniature works of art formed by nature.
