Description from the seller

Large slice of natural agate with a central quartz crystallization, mounted on an artisanal wooden and steel base.

The section was cut from a natural geode, opened to reveal the internal structure. In the center it features a wide area of white quartz crystallized, bright and compact, surrounded by a natural frame of agate with bands in warm tones of honey, amber, carnelian, brown and reddish-brown.

The outer part preserves the natural edge of the geode, while the polished surface enhances the transparency of the bands and the luminosity of the crystals. An elegant decorative piece with a strong presence, ideal for mineral collections, naturalistic interior, study, bookshelf, or cabinet de curiosités.
