Trolleite Crystal Tower

$75.00

Description

This hand-cut and polished Trolleite tower from Brazil features a soft, stone-quiet palette of warm, sandy, and pale icy grays with blue veining and inclusions. The surface has a refined, semi-matte polish that preserves the integrity of the stone rather than overpowering it—allowing the natural color transitions to remain the focus.

Cut into a classic tower form, this piece balances precision with organic character. Subtle shifts in tone and pattern reveal themselves slowly, making it especially appealing to collectors who value restraint, material integrity, and geological nuance.

Dimensions & Weight

  • Size: 4.5” × 2” × 1.5”

  • Weight: 388 g

Collector’s Notes

Trolleite is a visually understated but compositionally complex material, often consisting of quartz intergrown with lithium-bearing minerals such as lepidolite, dumortierite, and albite. Its appeal lies in its lithium content. Brazilian Trollite, in particular, is known for its balanced coloration and solid structure, making it well-suited for sculptural forms like towers.

This specimen has been hand-cut to emphasize clean lines while maintaining visible mineral inclusions—an intentional choice that preserves its natural character and collector value.

Highlights

  • Hand-cut and polished in a classic tower form

  • Excellent color variation 

  • Rare lithium inclusions

  • Brazilian origin

  • One-of-a-kind collector piece 

Mineralogy

Trolleite is not a single mineral species but a trade name commonly used for quartz rich in lithium-bearing inclusions such as lepidolite and dumortierite. These minerals contribute to its characteristic muted blue and gray tones, as well as its fine internal texture. The material forms in granitic and pegmatitic environments, where slow cooling allows for complex intergrowths and mineral layering.

Metaphysical Properties

Often associated with calm focus and mental clarity, Trolleite is valued for its grounding yet contemplative energy. It is commonly used by those seeking stillness, introspection, and emotional balance without overstimulation.
