About the Item

A very large split geode, the interior graced with the finest quality deep purple Uruguayan amethyst. The amethyst-lined stalactite walls of the geode undulate in and out lending the piece a great depth and dynamic quality. The agatised borders are exquisitely polished to reveal white, grey and orange bands. This piece was legally and ethically sourced directly in the prestigious mines of Uruguay, South America. Uruguayan amethyst is internationally recognized as being the finest and most aesthetic amethyst in the world, due to its intense deep purple coloration, 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.
