Agate slice with crystal heart 38cm from Brazil, brass base
PUMI2605
This Agate slice, which was formed in an air pocket trapped by the cooling lava of a volcano in Brazil, fascinates with its delicate nuances ranging from golden to white, through touches of brown. This color scheme creates a natural harmony that invites observation and daydreaming.
Its crystallized heart makes this piece unique. This phenomenon is explained by the fact that some cavities in the center of the agates do not fill completely with silica during their formation. Over time, quartz crystals form inside these empty spaces, adding a sparkling texture and striking contrast to the concentric bands of the stone.
Light and elegant, this slice mounted on a brass base reveals another facet of its beauty when illuminated, revealing even more detail and depth in its motifs.
