dreamlike amethyst geode with many green agate eyes from Uruguay in a black metal stand

An amethyst geode from Uruguay, whose outer edge is accented by numerous green agate eyes. Mounted in a black metal stand for upright display in a showcase.

Green agate eyes are a rare color variation. The typical agate bands on the geode edge are usually white, grey, or reddish-brown. A greenish tint indicates traces of chlorite or other iron-containing phyllosilicates. These entered the solution islands during early geode formation.

Several agate eyes on a geode document a heterogeneous cavity inner wall with multiple parallel growing microchannels. A geological sensation that is rarely seen in such variety.

Uruguayan material from the Artigas Basin is among the most intense amethyst deposits worldwide. The compact dark violet inner wall combined with the green agate eyes creates a high-contrast color dialogue.

A collector's item with curated staging and unusual agate coloration.
