Description from the seller
This monumental Citrine Cathedral Geode from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil is a true centerpiece for any collection. Dowsed in delicate druzy crystals, this cathedral stands an impressive 76cm tall, commanding presence and attention in any setting while offering a rare combination of scale, colour, and natural crystal architecture.
The cathedral features vibrant druzy flower-like formations, naturally formed over millennia, creating a radiant display of sparkling golden-yellow tones that catch the light from every angle. The thousands of crystal points range from soft golden-yellow to warm amber tones, creating a natural, sunlit glow. Adding further character and uniqueness, small rounded cylindrical calcite wands emerge inside the geode, ranging from fully milky white to soft opaque pink calcite, accentuating the geode’s character and providing a truly one-of-a-kind aesthetic.
Towering over the rest, this cathedral exemplifies the majesty of Brazilian mineralogy. Its staggering form, combined with the fine crystal details, makes it museum-quality, ideal for display in museum display, premium home, office, or gallery setting.
