A truly sculptural statement. This imposing vintage brooch by renowned Dallas, Texas designer Rebecca Collins features a stunning arrangement of raw and uniquely shaped quartz, celebrating their organic beauty within a substantial Sterling Silver setting.
The design showcases a beautiful progression of natural inclusions, moving from an ethereal Golden Rutilated Quartz at the top, into a cool, tranquil Sage Green Quartz, then a delicate Lavender Amethyst, and culminating in a striking, crystalline Quartz Point that functions as an artful end-piece.
With its significant presence and art-jewelry sensibility, this piece is an exceptional find for collectors of independent American designer jewelry.
