Stunning Purple Amethyst Stalactite Formations on Metal Stand

About the Item

This stunning piece is a light violet/lilac amethyst with unique stalactite formations, presented as a mesmerising half geode on a stylish decorative metal stand. The edges of this beautiful mineralogical piece have been polished, to reveal a layer of green celadonite, light brown agate bordering the rough basalt, and the stunning aesthetic is finished with a smattering of white quartz. The bottom of the piece maintains its rough basalt condition allowing us to imagine how it was spotted and formed inside the cavities of volcanic rock millions of years ago. This stunning piece is very decorative, due to its shape and size, and 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.
