The Origin
Two rose quartz parrots face each other across an amethyst chalice formation — a natural bowl shape that makes the birds appear to be sharing a drink. The cave-like backdrop in the photography emphasizes the intimacy of the scene.
The amethyst chalice is a particularly elegant formation — wider at the top, tapering to a narrow stem. The rose quartz birds lean into each other at matching angles, their wing tips nearly overlapping.
"The stone made a cup. The birds came to drink from it. I only finished the story."
