Crystal arrowhead, 4th millennium BCE, what-is-now Switzerland
I have to imagine that the craftsperson knew it was beautiful at the time.
I wonder if it was functional or ceremonial? It's fascinating either way.
I like to think it was some ancient dude's or family's equivalent of Bard with the Black Arrow
I'd almost like it better if it was one of hundreds, something normal to them. Common. Everyday. We see it as marvelous. Perhaps they saw it as useful.

Is it quartz?
I believe so!
