Hummingbird couple on a rock crystal with tourmaline inclusions

A pair of hummingbirds on a rock crystal with tourmaline inclusions from Brazil. The rock crystal base contains embedded tourmaline needles as a premium gemological detail.

Tourmaline-in-Quartz (Tourmalinated Quartz) is a deposit-specific constellation in which black or green tourmaline needles are embedded in clear quartz. This constellation occurs in pegmatitic deposits with boron-containing solutions synchronously with quartz mineralization.

The two hummingbird figures are composed as delicate sculptural work and utilize the tourmaline needles in the base as visual anchors. Such premium gemological bases elevate the composite piece beyond standard animal figurine compositions.
