Crystal Carving

We finally got some time to carve out the hunks of natural grown crystals we discovered in our friends' backyard in Arizona recently. Click here. Because the crystals are formed naturally from minerals that leach from the soil, they grow directly from and into the soil, so we have to carve away the soil and dirt from the sparkling purer crystal shards.
