Large Agate and Quartz egg Egg - Height: 22 cm - Width: 15 cm- 4.95 kg - (1)

Large Quartz Geode Egg with Golden Citrine Crystals – Madagascar – Wooden Ring Stand Impressive large quartz geode egg from Madagascar, weighing approximately 5 kg, featuring a dramatic open cavity lined with well-developed golden crystals. The exterior is carved and polished from massive milky quartz, with soft natural translucency and subtle warm inclusions. The smooth, rounded egg form enhances the sculptural presence of the piece, giving it a refined and harmonious silhouette. The interior reveals a richly crystallized cavity composed of well-formed quartz points in warm honey to deep amber tones. The bright golden coloration is characteristic of heat-treated citrine, a common and widely accepted treatment for Madagascar material. The crystals display excellent luster, clarity, and dimensional depth, creating strong visual impact from every angle. The contrast between the smooth white quartz exterior and the vibrant crystalline core makes this piece particularly decorative and eye-catching. Its substantial size and weight give it strong presence in any interior setting. The egg is presented on a wooden ring stand, which complements the natural tones of the stone and provides stable and elegant display. A bold and sculptural mineral specimen, ideal as a statement decorative object or for an advanced mineral collection.
