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...

Magnificent, rare and colorful, this Amethyst Geode features a stunning multi-colored, deep purple Amethyst crystals on a perfectly cathedral shape geode. Imagine this geode enhancing your space, offering a calming energy.

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.
