Oval amethyst geode
About the Item
A gorgeous small oval amethyst geode with an eye-shaped aesthetic
opening revealing the high quality amethyst interior, creating a wonderful
contrast with the rough basalt exterior. The edges polished to reveal the
white quartz and blue agate layers.
This piece was legally and ethically sourced directly in the prestigious mines of Uruguay, South America. Uruguayan amethyst is internationally recognised as being the finest and most aesthetic amethyst in the world, due to its intense deep purple colouration, the large size of its peaked crystals, and its durability. These crystals were formed over 120-140 million years during the Cretaceous period, and as all of our pieces are formed naturally, they are completely unique and unrepeatable natural wonders of art.
