25" Polished Quartz Crystal Sword with Metal Stand
This remarkable 25" long quartz sword transforms natural Brazilian quartz into an eye-catching display piece fit for a fantasy armory.

Its impressive size creates a commanding centerpiece, combining natural geological beauty with artistic craftsmanship. A custom display stand is included, allowing the sword to sit upright for an impressive presentation. It is a truly unique conversation piece for mineral collectors and fantasy enthusiasts alike.
About Quartz
Quartz is the name given to silicon dioxide (SiO2) and is the second most abundant mineral in the Earth's crust. Quartz crystals generally grow in silica-rich environments--usually igneous rocks or hydrothermal environments like geothermal waters--at temperatures between 100°C and 450°C, and usually under very high pressure. In either case, crystals will precipitate as temperatures cool, just as ice gradually forms when water freezes. Quartz veins are formed when open fissures are filled with hot water during the closing stages of mountain formation: these veins can be hundreds of millions of years old.
