Description from the seller
Very large natural amethyst geode in a rare horn shape.
This impressive piece weighs about 50 kg and belongs to the larger and heavier segment of amethyst geodes that are rarely offered at auctions. The geode has a pronounced open “mouth” shape and is entirely lined with well-developed, sharply formed amethyst crystals.
The crystals show an appealing natural color gradient from light lavender at the edges to deeper purple in the core. Due to the depth of the geode and the density of the crystals, a strong luster and depth are created. The size, weight, and sculptural form make this piece a true eyecatcher, suitable for a luxurious interior, practice space, gallery, or private collection.
