Description from the seller
This ornamental egg has been carved from a unique natural formation of agate and quartz. The surface exhibits a delicate play of milky transparencies and crystallizations, while the core of the egg reveals a charming open geode. The internal crystals, in pale violet tones with lilac shades, emerge from white concentric bands typical of agate, creating a harmonious and deeply evocative contrast.
The piece, carefully polished to highlight both the crystalline and geode parts, is ideal for collectors, geology enthusiasts, and lovers of natural beauty. Each side of the egg offers a different perspective on nature's incredible work, making it not just a decorative object but also a small universe to observe.
Materials: white agate, quartz, purple crystals
Category: collectible egg, unique piece
