Exceptional Moss, Blue & White Banded Agate Slice with a Crocodile Drawing

About the Item

Rare Agate Wings with Crystallized Center – The Perfectly Patterned Agate ▫️ Description A slice that embodies true rarity—this superb Brazilian agate is easily among the rarest we have ever encountered. It’s an agate that’s difficult to even describe. What would you call it? “Crocodile Agate,” “Agate with the Jacaré Drawing,” or “Crocodile Gemstone”? What truly stands out in this piece is the natural alligator drawing. Resting atop the blue “water,” the pattern perfectly mimics nature, with detailed eyes formed by a tiny geode and a perfectly shaped head that continues along the body—it’s impossible to unsee it. This is a remarkable artistic expression from Mother Nature, where a geological masterpiece mirrors a living creature. Not only the drawing, the rarity of this specimen continues to show up geologically, with its moss agate, which is seldom found in pieces from Ametista do Sul and creates patterns reminiscent of forests. Once the moss agate formed the cave for the geode, the blue and white bands took shape, artistically creating a lake-like image that continues, lace by lace, toward the center. Intact and with no treatment at all, the agate is of super-extra grade, a delicate specimen that comes in a custom-made stand so you can fully enjoy it. Simply outstanding. Take a look at the photos, and please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or special requests. 🤍 ▫️ The Crocodile - Moss and Lace Agate Butterfly (Cut, Polished, RAW, no enhancing treatment) ▫️ Color: Green, Blue, White, and Purple ▫️ Size (on Stand): -- 3.9 Kg - 8.6 lb -- Height: 48 cm. - 18.9 In. -- Width: 19 cm. - 7.5 In. -- Depth: 2 cm. - 0.8 In. ▫️ Amethyst Origin: Ametista do Sul - Brazil ▫️ Base: Self Standing ▫️ Ethically Sourced

Rare Natural Blue Lace Agate Slice with Crystal, Blue, and Bronze Agate Bands
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
A Superb Blue Lace Agate with a Rarely Seen Combination of Colors and Drawings ▫️ Description A superb slice of agate, this delicate specimen displays geological artistry. This Soledade Agate showcases intact banding in rare blue, bronze, and clear color hues—a truly artistic expression from Mother Nature. Over millions of years, layers of agate formed continuously. Hundreds of tiny bronze and deep blue bands create a frame, while the clear crystal provides the necessary empty space for the agate's central drawing to emerge. Special mention must be made of the central drawing, where rare blue, black, and cream colors form a microscopic landscape, reminiscent of icy terrain or coral formations, with sparkling druzy accentuating its intricate details. This thin slice of agate is translucent, and as you can see in the pictures, backlighting enhances and alters the color perspective of the agate, bringing out a blossoming golden hue. It is a perfect display specimen to place near a window, allowing you to witness the agate's transformation from an icy, cold appearance to a fiery, rich landscape throughout the day. With no cracks and no treatment at all, the agate is of super-extra, gallery grade. This breathtaking blue lace agate slice is a true collector's piece. With details visible from both sides, it's sure to become a part of your crystal collection. Check out the close-up photos to admire the intricate banding and delicate color hues. Have questions? Feel free to send us a message! Have you ever wondered how these mesmerizing blue lace layers formed? Agates typically form within gas bubbles or cavities in igneous (volcanic) rock like basalt. Over time, these cavities fill with layers of silica-rich water. As the water slowly evaporates, it leaves behind a layer of silica gel, which eventually hardens into a solid layer. This process repeats, with each layer potentially containing different impurities that contribute to the variation in color we see in the agate's bands. It's a remarkably slow process, and the result is truly fantastic, right? ▫️ Blue Lace Agate Slice on Stand...
