Heart Shaped Amethyst Formation with Central Stalactite "EYE" and Agate Border

About the Item

This natural piece is surrounded and adorned with a beautiful polished border, where one can see the mineral layers developing from the rough basalt, to the grey/blue agate, white quartz and finally to the amethyst crystal. The multicolour border intensifies the vibrant deep purple tone of the amethyst. In the central part of this gorgeous natural sculpture, a polished stalactite stands out in the semblance of a “flower” or “eye”, demonstrating an aesthetic harmony between natural beauty and design. The back of the piece maintains its rough basalt condition and it 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. Dimensions of the stone: H 17.5cm x W 16cm x D 8cm Dimensions of the stone with base: H with base 22.5cm / W with base 10.5cm / D with base 10cm.
