Crystalline Quartz Fan Earrings - Large on long hand-made hooks
A magnificent, fiery blend of orange and golden-yellow New Zealand beach quartz, unlike anything we’ve ever collected before.
This rare variation holds striking tones and a bold crystalline texture — large, light-catching crystals that glow like a sunset burning across the horizon.
Hand-gathered by us on the remote South Westland coastline around 3–4 years ago, this stone is truly one of a kind. We haven’t found anything like her since.
Our Fan style earribgs are limited edition, onlymade a few times per year.

About Quartz:
Quartz is a major constituent of the earth’s crust as well as one of the most important rock-forming minerals. The chemical composition of quartz is silicon dioxide (SiO2) – also known as silica.
A distinctive feature of quartz is its hardness, which means that it polishes well and is not easily broken. The appearance of quartz is variable – it may be coloured or colourless; transparent, cloudy or opaque.
The many varieties of quartz can be divided into two main groups: crystalline quartz and very fine-grained (or cryptocrystalline) quartz, which includes chalcedony, agate, chert, flint and jasper.
