Skull of Pan Colombianite Carving, Translucent Horned Skull, 10.50g/52.5ct

Its human skull face features expressive eye sockets, a sculpted nasal opening, and individually defined teeth, framed by curled horns with carved ridges. The design evokes a Pan-inspired woodland figure, although the artist’s intended subject has not been confirmed.

Deep and smoky in ordinary lighting, this sculpture reveals warm brown and golden translucency when illuminated from behind. Light passing through the glass highlights the carving’s contours and the beauty within the material.

Also known as Piedra de Rayo, or “Lightning Stone,” Colombianite is admired for its textured natural forms and beautiful translucency. The term pseudotektite refers to its resemblance to tektites and does not establish an impact origin.

For collectors who appreciate symbolic art, the skull can represent mortality, wisdom, transformation, and the cycle of life. Its horned design invites personal interpretations rooted in nature, mythology, and imagination.

Those who regard Colombianite as a sacred stone may also enjoy this piece as a focal point for meditation, intention setting, or personal reflection. These associations reflect spiritual beliefs and symbolism rather than scientifically established properties.

A striking addition to a natural glass collection, skull display, or personal sacred space, “Skull of Pan” brings together Colombian material and the art of hand carving.

You will receive the exact 10.50 gram sculpture pictured. Backlit photographs demonstrate its translucency; its appearance varies with lighting. Photography props are not included.
