15.6" Unique Amethyst Geode with Calcite on Metal Stand - Uruguay
This is a gorgeous, dark amethyst crystal geode on a custom metal stand. The specimen itself is 15.6" tall. Multiple cavities act as windows into this geode, with one cavity containing a large calcite crystal. Each window has been polished around the "rind", revealing the colorful underlying mineral layers. A top quality amethyst piece, and an aesthetic display on the included custom metal display stand.
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.
