Treasure Chest Borwn Druze, Polished Celadonite Border and Calcite Formation

About the Item

A wonderful formation with abundant agatized exterior polished to reveal the different mineral layers and the interior with a lining of brown drize over various stalactites with a frosty calcite to the left. 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.

Sculptural and full of special features, this small yet gorgeous geode brings rarity at every point.

This rare combination makes it a standout piece for crystal aficionados, collectors, and décor artists seeking something truly extraordinary. The whole geode commands attention, and the first thing we notice is the calcite. It formed in different ways, with some perfectly crystallized formations adding a delicate touch to the specimen.
