Slice of Agate (Brazil)
PUMI1856-17
Originally from Brazil, this natural agate slice is notable for its high translucency: when exposed to light, almost the entire surface becomes luminous, revealing a delicate internal crystal structure.
The concentric bands, in honey and light beige tones, were formed by successive silica deposits inside a volcanic cavity : a process well known in geology.
Displayed on a square brass base, this geological curiosity fully reflects the spirit of a cabinet of curiosities, where light becomes an integral part of the observation.
