Meteorite geode of amethyst quartz, 190 g, 8 × 5 × 4 cm, Capurru Quarry, Osilo, Sardinia, Italy.

AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This fascinating specimen presents itself as a small geode or open natural cavity, rich in brilliant amethyst quartz crystals. The prismatic crystals develop inside the cavity displaying sharp edges and well-defined polyhedral faces with a striking vitreous luster. The tones gracefully blend from tips of a more intense translucent purple and lilac to fade toward aggregates of white-ivory and translucent crystals that cover the bottom of the structure. All of it rests stably on the characteristic gray-green natural rock matrix, typical of the find area, which enhances the three-dimensionality of the sample.

The sample comes from Capurru Quarry, Osilo, Sardinia, Italy.

In crystal therapy, amethyst quartz is considered one of the quintessential spiritual and meditative stones, traditionally associated with deep calm, mental purification, and emotional balance. It is used to promote serenity, dispel daily tensions, stimulate intuition, and protect the environment from negative energetic influences.
The bases are not included in the shipment.
