Natural Merlinite-Gabbro ball of the highest quality, weighing 18.89 kg, origin Madagascar, a natural work of art.
Description from the seller
This extraordinary Merlinit-Gabbro sphere, weighing an impressive 18.8 kilograms, is much more than a decorative object – it is an expression of natural elegance, deep symbolism, and exceptional presence. At first glance, it reveals its special aura: a contrasting play of dark depths and shimmering light inclusions, interwoven with gently flowing transitions into violet, blue, and gray. The harmoniously coordinated color gradients appear like vibrant, stone-encased energy, giving this sphere an almost hypnotic depth.
Its polished surface enhances the effect of the changing structures and ensures that light refracts in a variety of ways—sometimes gentle, sometimes intense. Depending on the viewing angle and the incident light, new facets, patterns, and shades reveal themselves, creating the impression that entire landscapes or cosmic currents are unfolding within the stone. This dynamic, almost spherical aesthetic makes every viewing a memorable experience.
But not only is its visual impact impressive. The effect attributed to it in the areas of interior design or energetic harmonization is also remarkable. The sphere radiates calm, stability, and strength—qualities that make it an ideal focal point in any room. Whether as an exclusive collector's item, a meditative anchor point, an inspiring object in a workspace or creative environment, or as a representative element in an exhibition area: this Merlinit-Gabbro sphere draws attention without being intrusive—its natural grandeur speaks for itself.
In its size and perfect craftsmanship, it is an absolute rarity. Such spheres are rarely found—especially in this quality, with such vivid play of colors, flawless shape, and expressive strength. It represents both groundedness and foresight. For some, it is a tool for inner reflection; for others, an expressive statement object with depth and character.
Those seeking the extraordinary will find in this sphere more than just a piece of polished stone. It is a silent witness to time, change, and permanence – a unique work of natural art that touches the senses and fills spaces with its presence.
