Exclusive Amethyst Geode Portal with a Rare Crown Druzy Formation, Super Rare
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
Large Amethyst Geode Portal with a Rare Crown Formation of Sparkly, Deep Purple Amethyst on Custom-Made Rotating Stand
▫️ Description
A rare, stunning Amethyst Geode Portal, this natural masterpiece brings world-class aesthetics with its large, sparkly purple druzy, formed in an array that resembles a sparkling crown. Amethyst specimens with this crown formation are sourced exclusively from a single mine in Ametista do Sul, making it a truly rare addition that brings beauty and natural elegance to any collection or interior space.
The geode's rim, outlined by the agate matrix, emphasizes the rich Amethyst center, drawing the eye to the portal. The all-natural green basalt, present as part of the geode's formation, adds balance and harmony to its colors, enhancing its stunning aesthetics.
The druzy of this specimen is of world-class quality, featuring points that reveal a vibrant purple tone, embodying tranquility and spiritual depth. These Amethyst points are complemented by naturally polished facets with a mirror-like shine, reflecting the light and creating a display that mesmerizes the viewer.
With both sides being gorgeous, we chose to display it on a 360-degree rotating stand so you can fully observe this natural masterpiece.
This Amethyst portal is not only a natural geological formation; it is a work of natural art. I am confident that you will be amazed by the beauty and rarity of this Amethyst Geode Portal as it takes center stage in your collection or decor, dazzling with its formation and shine.

Genuine Sericho Pallasite Meteorite
Located in New York, NY
This luminous Sericho pallasite meteorite slice offers a captivating view into the early solar system. Dating back approximately 4.5 billion years, this stony-iron meteorite was discovered in Kenya and officially recognized in 2016, although the fall is believed to have occurred decades earlier.
This Sericho slice features a mosaic of orange and green Olivine – the gem variety of Peridot – suspended in a gleaming iron-nickel matrix. Especially when backlit, the Olivine crystals radiate with striking transparency and color.
Pallasites make up less than 1% of all known meteorites and are among the rarest and most beautiful of extraterrestrial materials. Thought to originate from disrupted asteroids in the early solar system, specimens like this one likely formed at the boundary between a molten metal core and a silicate-rich mantle – or through high-energy impacts between differentiated bodies. This meteorite slice offers a literal cross-section of planetary formation and destruction.
A true standout for any meteorite, mineral, or space memorabilia...

Amethyst Crown Geode Slice with Large Sparkly Amethyst Druzy on a Rotating Stand
Located in Ametista Do Sul, BR
Found only in the Poncio Mine, Amethyst Geodes with Crown formations are a very rare form of Amethyst where the crystal points form a regal crown-like structure, elevating them from the usual druzy formations, a rare and highly regarded amethyst that is ready to find a top spot in your collection, decor, or gallery.
The crown Amethyst is the main highlight of this specimen, the points face forward and are naturally decorated with tiny Golden Goethite needles, creating an overall sparkly brilliance that dazzles the eyes.
Another special characteristic is the exquisite beauty of its Amethyst matrix, which has been expertly polished to accentuate its natural colors and drawings.
It is a double-sided slice and we chose a 360º rotating base, that way you can easily see the beauty of both sides. A project that started with the raw amethyst agate geode...

Antique, New and Vintage Natural Specimens
Natural specimens turn things found in nature, such as rocks, crystals and timber, into art. Sometimes these specimens are hand-carved into sculptures. Other times, antique, new and vintage natural specimens themselves are best displayed in their most untouched state. These pieces range from Victorian-era objects to modern-day designs and include everything from sculptures made from animal horns to works in wood, either as sculptures or merely imposing and provocative chunks of driftwood.
Natural specimens serve as compelling decor in any collection or home. Just as any curious decorative object, such as an ancient scientific instrument or taxidermy mount, will draw attention to your carefully curated home library or mantel, natural specimens can spark interesting discussions about life and art. Whether it’s a piece of ancient pottery formed from natural clay, plants sculpted from metal, sculptures of animals or antique stone, they grant a window into all of nature’s wonders.
Natural specimen sculptures can complement many aesthetics. A rare geode makes a stunning centerpiece in a study or living room. Crystals and rock crystal spheres carved in the 1970s add a sense of etherealness and quiet beauty to any space.
Whatever your taste, the selection of antique, new and vintage natural specimens on 1stDibs includes precisely the right piece for your space.
