AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Mineral Art Object 14.90 x 3.80 cm
327g Grosser Amethyst Obelisk 14.90 x 3.80cm - with Crazy Lace crystal structure
This extraordinary crazy Lace Amethyst Obelisk combines in the smallest space what many pieces only possess individually: diversity, depth, and an almost architectural precision of its natural color structures. The clear tips and sharply defined zones in a V-shape resemble the steps of an ancient temple – built layer by layer by the earth itself.
Mineralogically, the amethyst here shows a rarely distinct zoning: violet areas alternate with milky-white quartz veins and delicate golden inclusions. This interplay develops over millions of years through changing temperature and pressure phases, giving this obelisk its unmistakable, crystalline rhythm.
In antiquity, amethyst was regarded as a stone of mental clarity, eloquence, and concentration. The Greeks believed it protected against illusions—both internal and external—and connected the mind with a 'clear view beyond the fog,' making it the stone of thinkers, speakers, philosophers, and politicians. In the form of an obelisk, this character is amplified: an upright focus point, a symbol of alignment and inner order.
What makes this obelisk particularly special is its unique 'Crazy Lace' crystal structure: each turn reveals a completely new image – sometimes wild, sometimes calm, sometimes streaked with luminous violet, and other times crystal clear with honey-colored accents. An object that is not just meant to be collected but experienced.
