Description
A quartz crystal set in an antelope horn. Overall length about 6-1/2 inches. Fill for the join is 1/50 inch diameter black glass microbeads. The crystal has a very unusual natural shape (to my eye it has an illusory spiraling look when seen in 3-D, though it is all flat planes at the standard quartz angles).A wand is a type of intention tool, and so (sometimes) is a crystal (with or without a handle). Is this a wand, or a crystal with a handle?

Love the mix of organic and mineral, clear and opaque, light and dark. It makes for a wonderful combination!

You put that so well.

Was this a commission, a sale piece, or just a personal one? It's /terribly/ satisfying. And you're right about the crystal, it does look like it twists.

It's a sale piece, though it is good enough for my personal collection.

If you don't mind me asking, what do you typically sell items like this for?

My price for a piece depends on several things, such as replacement cost for materials (and whether a particular part _can_ be replaced), time it took to make, how enjoyable it was to make, how well it turned out, how much I like it personally, and so on. This is currently a $100 piece, but a similar one with a less unique crystal might be only $40.

I really hope you continue to do pieces like this with different types of horn and crystal. I've never seen it done before, but it's amazing.

Well, This horn and crystal seemed to really belong together. I did do another, though, with a smaller horn and a small, cloudy white crystal. It was part of a set of two, the other part being a pale antler tine with a small, clear, dark crystal. I don't have a picture of that set, though.

It's a pretty, simple wand or a pretty, ornate crystal with a handle. I like it.
