Rough geode section with contrasting amethyst

About the Item

Like a treasure chest, this striking geode section shows the incredible contrast between the rough volcanic stone (basalt) in which the geodes are found, and the radiant amethystine quartz crystals they conceal. 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.
