12.4" Sparkling Druzy Quartz Geode Section on Metal Stand - Uruguay
This is a beautiful druzy quartz geode section from the amethyst mines near Artigas, Uruguay. The crystals have a lovely sage-green coloration as a result of the underlying mineral layers. The edges of the geode have been nicely polished and it is accompanied by a custom metal stand creating a very aesthetic display piece.
About Uruguay Amethyst
Though Brazil produces a greater volume of amethyst, the material from the Artigas region of Uruguay is renowned for its exceptional depth of color and superb crystal quality. Uruguayan amethyst typically forms in dense basalt flows and develops into richly saturated, grape-purple crystals that are considered some of the finest in the world. Because we import our specimens directly from the mines, we’re able to offer outstanding prices on everything from dramatic geodes to premium clusters and collector-grade crystal formations.
