Sigh among minerals

Weighing 1.05 kg, this unique piece measures 20 cm wide, 14 cm deep, and 26 cm high and is shaped like a hummingbird. It was crafted in shades of pink, resulting in a delicate and cheerful design.

This delicate sculpture depicts a hummingbird carved from rose quartz and fluorite, captured in mid-flight with its wings outstretched and beak raised, conveying lightness and vitality. The pink tones of the quartz in its body contrast harmoniously with the violet hues of the fluorite in its wings and tail, achieving a vibrant and ethereal effect that evokes the creature's natural grace.

The piece rests on a formation of desert rose, whose organic texture and sandy color create a dynamic support, like an arid landscape visited by a hummingbird in search of nectar. The base of dark, polished, and solid harzburgite provides stability and visual richness, balancing the composition with its deep tone and understated texture.

Overall, the sculpture conveys beauty, agility, and balance between the subtlety of the bird and the strength of the mineral environment that supports it.

Fluorite, as well as rose quartz and Harzburgite, come from quarries located in the south of the province of Córdoba. Desert rose, in turn, comes from San Luis, all provinces in Argentina.
