AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Beautiful slice of Agate characterized by a marked banded structure, with alternations of white, blue-gray, cream and honey tones.
The polished surface well highlights the natural pattern and the different zones of translucency.
The inner part presents an extensive quartz crystallization, with clear crystals that develop toward the center and create a pleasant contrast with the agate bands. There is also a natural through cavity, along whose edges a fine quartz crystallization is visible.
When viewed with transmitted light, the slice shows more clearly the translucency of some areas and the sequence of the different bands.
Origin: Minas Gerais, Brazil
Weight: 270 g
Dimensions: 16.5 × 15.5 × 0.5 cm
