Dendritic Quartz cabochon from Brazil with crisp, fern-like manganese oxide inclusions suspended in clear quartz. The high dome and polished oval cut make the internal branching patterns easy to see, giving the stone a natural landscape look.
Dendritic quartz is prized for these tree-like inclusions, which are naturally formed mineral growths inside the quartz rather than surface markings. Each stone is one-of-a-kind, and the patterning in this piece has especially strong contrast and definition.
