Sphalerite Titanium Aura Quality Skull Skull - Height: 11.2 cm - Width: 8.3 cm- 972 g

Sphalerite is a zinc sulfide mineral well known for its vibrant luster and range of colors, often from yellow to deep brown or black. The Titanium Aura variety is created by bonding titanium and other metals to the surface, producing a striking iridescent sheen that makes the crystal appear rainbow-like. In this piece, the sphalerite has been carved into a skull, a popular motif in crystal art and collector circles. Skulls carved from minerals are valued for both their symbolic associations—often linked to protection, transformation, or mortality—and their demonstration of lapidary skill. This sizable specimen, measuring over 11 cm in height and weighing nearly a kilogram, blends natural mineral beauty with artistic craftsmanship, making it a fascinating decorative item for collectors interested in mineralogy and metaphysical artistry.
