54" Wide, Massive Multi-Window Amethyst Geode - Museum Quality
This is a one-of-a-kind, jaw-dropping, dark amethyst crystal geode on a large custom metal stand. This gargantuan geode was carefully extracted from the hard basalt formations near Artigas, Uruguay. It was then masterfully prepared by the local expert craftsman to create this natural work of art.
There are five different viewing windows into this beast of a geode, with the smallest cavity at the right side containing a cluster of large, pristine calcite crystals. The "rind" of each window has been polished to a glossy finish, the largest of which is 21" wide. On the custom display stand it is 59.5" tall, or just under five feet tall! The geode itself measures 54.2" wide, 33.5" tall, (longest horizontal measurement) and at its thickest point measures approximately 30". The crystal-lined interior of the geode measures 53 x 25.5 x 24.5".
A top quality amethyst piece, and an aesthetic display that's sure to turn heads!

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.
