AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This exceptional obelisk-duo made of polychrome jasper combines soft blue and gray tones with warm red, orange, beige, and earthy hues. The two carefully cut obelisks reveal on their different sides new natural color gradations and fascinating patterns, giving each piece its own character.
Particularly appealing are the contrasting red and orange jasper areas, which stand out clearly from the cool blue-gray base tones. Subtle transitions, cloud-like structures and natural line drawings give the stones a nearly landscape-like effect. Through precise cutting, clear facets are created that let the light wander across the polished surfaces and highlight the different color zones especially nicely..
