20.4" Amethyst Geode On Metal Stand - Extra Dark Crystals

This is an absolutely spectacular amethyst geode on a custom metal stand. The geodes has extra dark crystals, some of the darkest amethyst you'll see, and the edges have been polished to display the agate "rind" The geode itself is 20.4" tall and stands 27" tall on the metal stand. I thought it was the nicest geode in the size range that my supplier had available.

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.
