Madagascar Red Agate – Natural Decorative Element - Height: 257 mm - Width: 175 mm- 6655 g

This Madagascar red agate, shaped in a freeform polished manner, presents itself as a natural decorative element with a strong visual and tactile presence. The specimen maintains a harmonious and robust silhouette, with full volumes and gently rounded surfaces that highlight its sculptural character without distorting its geological origin. The polishing accentuates the stone's internal structure, giving it depth of color and a soft brilliance. The coloration varies between warm tones of rust red, wine red, and reddish-brown, with smooth transitions and more intense areas reminiscent of a highly silicified red jasper. In some areas, denser color concentrations and lighter internal veins can be observed, evidence of multiple silicification processes over time. These structures suggest a complex formation, where originally porous or microfractured materials were progressively impregnated by silica-rich solutions, transforming into a compact and durable mass. Madagascar is known for its silica formations, often at the border between agate, jasper, and massive chalcedony.
