Description from the seller

Purple Quartz Sphere with a Botryoidal — Here is an extraordinary botryoidal agate formation that creates a combination of radially grouped tiny spheres, in a vivid purple color ranging from deep violet to delicate lavender. This ensemble is enriched with hints of green celadonite, which gives the structure a magnificent three-dimensionality and an enchanting luster. Additionally, rare supplementary quartz crystals can be seen that further embellish the composition. When observing the agate under magnification, one can appreciate the crystallized finish resembling a druzy on each individual sphere. This exceptional specimen comes from Sulawesi, Indonesia.
