About the Item
This substantial formation consists of prominent white quartz crystals
with a slight green tinge, laid over a bed of undulating stalactites. A small
honey coloured calcite hides beneath the cetnral stalactite
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.
