Nothing about this agate freeform is subtle, from its sheer bulk to its sparkling druzy face.
It came from Brazil, where it was hand selected, then cut and semi polished so the druzy and banding show, and one close up focuses on that banding and sparkle together. It is deeper than it is wide, 13 inches thick against a 12 inch width, which makes it a chunky, three dimensional piece that looks good from more than one side. Set it on a floor plinth, a broad stone hearth, a lobby table or a sturdy low cabinet. It ships in a custom crate. For someone who loves agate and has the space, it is a striking anniversary or housewarming gift. This exact agate freeform is the one you receive.
It measures about 1 foot 9 inches by 1 foot and is 1 foot 1 inch thick, with a weight of about 56 kilograms (over 123 pounds).
Agate is a translucent, banded variety of microcrystalline quartz. Its bands form as silica is deposited layer by layer inside a rock cavity, and some cavities end up lined with sparkling druzy crystals. Agate is slightly porous, so it takes dye well, which is how most vividly colored agate in the trade is made.
Stone Meaning: Agate is traditionally associated with balance and stability.
