A geode with a stalactite inside is a different sort of amethyst piece: you get the purple crystal lining plus a column of growth that formed as mineral rich water dripped through the cavity.
The stalactite gives the piece a sculptural center within the sparkle of the druzy around it. The geode is mounted on a metal stand, which presents the hollow at a viewing angle for a console, mantel or bookcase. With its stand it holds its own as the main piece on a shelf. Choose it for a home office or a reading room, or as a housewarming gift for someone who has collected amethyst for years and wants something beyond a standard cluster.
Stalactites form as mineral rich water drips and deposits layer after layer. Amethyst stalactites form inside geodes in volcanic basalt, and mines near Artigas, Uruguay are well known for them. Sliced stalactites show banding of chalcedony and amethyst around the core.
Stone Meaning: Amethyst is traditionally associated with calm and clarity.
