Up close, this small geode rewards a second and third look.
This zeolite and chalcedony geode has been carved into an egg shape with a flat cut base, so it sits steadily on a shelf or desk, and its hollow center is fascinating to peer into. The druzy formations of zeolite and chalcedony sparkle as the light changes, and apophyllite crystals join them, adding another texture to the mix. At about 3.5 inches tall and 0.57 kilograms, it fits easily in one hand, which makes it a good choice for a small shelf, a desk or a gift for a mineral collector who enjoys looking inside specimens. It also makes a thoughtful gift for a graduation or a new job. This is the exact geode shown.
The geode is about 3.5 by 3.375 by 2.375 inches and weighs about 0.57 kilograms.
About Zeolites, Apophyllite and Chalcedony
Zeolites are a group of more than 40 hydrated aluminum silicate minerals that most often form in open cavities within basalt. Apophyllite forms prismatic or tabular crystals with a glassy to pearly luster and is soft, 4.5 to 5 on the Mohs scale. Chalcedony is microcrystalline quartz, the material behind agate, carnelian and onyx.
Stone Meaning: Chalcedony is traditionally associated with harmony and goodwill.
