Diese hochwertige Chalcedon-Freiform beeindruckt mit ihrer warmen, goldgelben Farbpalette, durchzogen von feinen, natürlichen Einschlüssen in Schwarz, Weiß und sanften Erdtönen. Die sanften Farbverläufe und die markanten Strukturen verleihen dem Stein eine faszinierende Tiefe, die durch die hochglanzpolierte Oberfläche besonders zur Geltung kommt.

Chalcedon gehört zur Familie der mikrokristallinen Quarze und entsteht über Millionen von Jahren durch die Ablagerung von kieselsäurehaltigen Lösungen in Hohlräumen und Spalten der Erdkruste. Die charakteristische goldene Farbe dieser Freiform ist das Ergebnis von mineralischen Spurenelementen wie Eisenoxiden, die dem Stein seine warme Ausstrahlung verleihen. Besonders hochwertige Exemplare stammen aus Madagaskar, Namibia oder Brasilien, wo diese einzigartigen Varietäten gefunden werden.

Diese kunstvoll geschliffene Freiform ist nicht nur ein ästhetisches Sammlerstück, sondern auch ein beeindruckendes Dekorationsobjekt, das die natürliche Schönheit der Erde in sich trägt. Ihre warme, beruhigende Farbgebung macht sie zu einem harmonischen Element in jeder Umgebung und verleiht Räumen eine edle und zugleich erdverbundene Ausstrahlung.

Origin: Madagascar

It is a fossil wood dating back 200 million years, all parts from a log or branches have been silicified, meaning that organic components were little by little replaced by silicon in the form of jasper, chalcedony and more rarely opal. Without the organic parts, all the living matter was replaced by stone : there are growth rings, cell separations, almost like worm cracks.
Its features are those of the mineral that would have pseudo-transformed the wood : the silicon.
And that’s what we call a "petrified wood" in the common language.

The lots were photographed under professional lights. Please note that the colours might differ depending on the monitor settings and light source.
