Description from the seller

Here is an extraordinary formation of botroidal agate that creates a combination of small spheres grouped radially, in a vivid violet color ranging from deep purple to delicate lavender. This ensemble is enriched with hints of green celadonite, giving the structure a magnificent three-dimensionality and an enchanting luster. Additionally, rare extra quartz crystals can be observed, further embellishing the composition. By examining the agate under magnification, one can appreciate the crystallized finish similar to a druse on each individual sphere. This exceptional specimen comes from Sulawesi, Indonesia.

Seller's Story

The Mineral Art Gallery offers minerals, fossils, shells and natural elements. Born in Italy in 2017, today she collaborates with international galleries and collectors, she is a direct importer of large minerals and naturalistic collectible elements; deals with the processing to insert them inside the living space. A section of the gallery was dedicated to the Wunderkammer, "chamber of wonders or cabinet of curiosities" in which Mirabilia elements are presented: naturalia and italiania, a union between "the present is the past". All lots are shipped via DHL Express and Fercam couriers, with insured parcel and tracking.
