Description from the seller

A striking chalcedony specimen from France featuring an attractive botryoidal formation and a richly developed cavity. Delicate transitions of honey, caramel, and greyish-violet tones create a highly aesthetic appearance that stands out both in a collection and in photographs. The edges of the cavity are lined with tiny sparkling crystals, adding depth and brilliance to the piece.
The mineral is UV reactive under both shortwave and longwave UV light, displaying an interesting luminescence that makes it an eye-catching collector’s specimen. Thanks to its distinctive structure, appealing coloration, and UV response, this is an attractive piece for collectors of fluorescent minerals as well as enthusiasts of unusual chalcedony specimens.
