Dendritic opal hides tiny fern like branches spreading through the stone. These polished spheres are sold as is because their shapes are not perfectly round.
The branching dendrites look almost botanical, which makes these a lovely match for plant lovers and anyone who enjoys natural patterns. They are satisfying to hold. Each sphere is one of a kind.
Each numbered option is pictured on its own, so the piece you see is the piece you receive. Spheres are about 2.4 to 3.25 inches across. Each is sold as is because it is not a perfect sphere. Stand not included. Check the photos to see the shape and markings of each sphere.

A stand keeps a sphere from rolling and lifts it into view, so it looks finished on a shelf, desk or altar. Pick one from our crystal sphere stands and holders, with carved wood, brass, metal and clear acrylic styles. Check the stand size against the sphere diameter for a secure fit.
