Shipping and applicable taxes are calculated at checkout.

A realistic skull cut from a single block of rose quartz, 3 inches.

Rose quartz owes its colour to microscopic mineral fibres threaded through the quartz, and those same fibres are what make it cloudy rather than clear. The pink is never even — it pools and thins across a block, so a carved surface shows drifts of stronger and weaker colour.

The skull is the hardest test of a carver's eye, because everyone already knows what it should look like. The passages that take the longest are the ones you notice least: the transition from temple to cheekbone, and the way the teeth meet.
