In stock
This 2-inch quartz angel is hand-carved by skilled Brazilian artisans from natural rock crystal quartz. Each figure is meticulously shaped and polished to enhance the stone’s clarity and inner light reflection. Even at its small scale, the angel’s wings and form are finely detailed, giving the piece a graceful presence and soft luminosity when viewed in natural or artificial light.
Clear quartz, also known as rock crystal, is one of the most abundant minerals on Earth, composed entirely of silicon dioxide (SiO₂). It forms in hydrothermal veins, pegmatites, and geodes under stable temperature and pressure conditions, allowing large, transparent crystals to develop over millions of years.
Brazil’s Minas Gerais region produces world-renowned quartz known for its exceptional optical clarity and structural integrity — ideal for precision carvings and lapidary art.

Clear quartz has been carved and cherished for thousands of years, from ancient Egyptian amulets to medieval crystal spheres. Its transparency made it a symbol of illumination and truth across cultures.
Modern Brazilian lapidaries continue this heritage, transforming naturally formed quartz into angelic figures that celebrate clarity, focus, and light in its purest form — a bridge between nature’s geometry and human artistry.
The angel symbolizes purity, guidance, and presence, while clear quartz represents clarity, reflection, and balanced energy. Together, they form a perfect union of form and meaning:
The transparent body reflects openness and honesty.
The angelic silhouette suggests comfort and direction.
Combined, they evoke calm focus and radiant harmony.
Collectors often choose clear quartz angels for their serene, timeless appearance — a visual metaphor for light, truth, and quiet reflection.
Each carving is unique, with variations in internal clarity, faint inclusions, or shimmering internal fractures that catch light like fine glass. The small 1.5-inch size enhances the sense of intimacy and precision — perfect for display trays, pocket companions, or symbolic gifts of calm and focus.
Clean with a soft cloth or mild soap and water. Avoid harsh chemicals or rapid temperature changes that could stress the crystal. Store separately to protect its polished finish from scratches by harder stones.
