Quartz from Gunyahang quartz mine, Province No. 1, Nepal

4

A small cabinet jap law twin specimen from the Gunyahang mining district in eastern Nepal, an area known for high-elevation crystal pockets that can only be worked during a brief seasonal window. This piece displays the well-loved Japan-law twinning habit, formed by two transparent, gently compressed Quartz crystals that join in a symmetrical and visually harmonious arrangement. The crystal faces are clean and bright, carrying a strong light-reflective luster with a polished, glass-like appearance.
