Description from the seller
A work of art carved in stone: this sphere of red moss agate from Madagascar is a geological masterpiece that combines the intensity of iron-rich red with the crystalline purity of quartz. Its veins seem to paint an abstract landscape, with shapes and shades that evoke the primordial beauty of the Earth.
This particular variety of agate formed millions of years ago through a slow process of silica sedimentation within volcanic rock cavities. Over time, the mineral elements present created intricate internal patterns, with dendrites and inclusions that form unique designs. Quartz, which formed subsequently, added glimmers and transparency that make every angle of the sphere fascinating and unrepeatable.
Symbol of stability and protection, this stone is considered a powerful grounding amulet, capable of fostering concentration and inner growth. This sphere carries the primal energy of the earth, encapsulating millennia of geological history.
