Small Cluster of Amethyst Stalactite Formations - Mineral Display piece

About the Item

This piece comprises a stunning example of deep purple amethyst, elegantly displayed on a metal stand, with a naturally decorative multiple stalactite formation. The polished borders of the formation allow one to appreciate the visible grey and brown agate, green celadonite and pink jasper - the aesthetic is sealed with a smattering of sparkling white quartz crystals. Some stalactites have been polished at the cut edges creating, a floral feel. A conveniently sized decorative piece. The bottom of the piece maintains its rough basalt condition allowing us to imagine how it formed inside the cavities of volcanic rock millions of years ago. The piece is displayed on a custom metal stand. 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.
