About the Item

Resembling a cup of flowers, this formation consists of several circular calcite arrangements sat on a bed of deep purple amethyst. There is a second generation growth of amethystine quartz within and around the circular calcites, with overgrowth of blackish goethite in places. 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.
