This 'apple' sculpture was crafted from an internal raw natural block of clear crystal.
This block has been ground and polished by hand for different minerals to obtain the shape of an apple and a very smooth and shiny surface.
The peculiarity of the crystal used is that it has natural bubbles inside it. The petiole and the leaf were made from two blocks of different colours.
The petiole is amber in color while the leaf is green. The presence of mixed colored details highlights the transparency of the crystal and its internal bubbles.
It is only possible to create a limited edition of this sculpture as it is very difficult to find crystal blocks of these colors large enough to make it.
