Description

Amethyst
Uruguay
5.93 x 4.80 x 2.43 inches (15.07 x 12.19 x 6.17 cm)

This Amethyst Geode from Uruguay features a dense interior of well-formed crystals displaying rich violet to smoky-lavender hues. The crystals show strong luster and angular terminations, creating a visually layered interior with depth and contrast. Subtle tonal variation across the crystal faces adds dimension, while the natural outer matrix frames the cavity with an organic silhouette. The combination of saturated color, crystal density, and classic Uruguayan character makes this geode one appealing and substantial display specimen.


Estimate: $400 - up.
