An extraordinary agate geode with a warm, earthy color palette – amber gold, honey brown, and dark chocolate tones blend in harmonious banding. The polished outer shell displays characteristic agate layers in warm brown and gold hues, while the interior is lined with thousands of tiny rock crystal geodes that glitter like frozen diamonds within the hollow space. Weighing 1.8 kilograms and measuring 17 centimeters in length, it is an imposing showpiece that combines geological beauty with sculptural form. The natural "bowl" shape with multiple openings allows fascinating glimpses into the crystal-filled chambers.

Mineralogical features:
Warm earth tones
The agate's outer shell displays a harmonious color palette ranging from light honey brown through warm amber gold to deep chocolate brown. The warm brown tones are characteristic of Brazilian agates and are reminiscent of honey, caramel, and dark chocolate. The color gradient from the outside to the inside documents the geode's geological history over millions of years.
Crystal geodes inside
The cavity is completely lined with sparkling quartz crystals – thousands of tiny, perfectly formed crystal points create a glittering surface. The white to transparent geodes form a beautiful contrast to the warm brown tones of the agate shell. Depending on the angle of the light, the crystals reflect and produce a mesmerizing sparkle.

Location: Brazil
Brazil is the world's leading source of high-quality agate geodes. The spectacular deposits in the southern Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul were formed in volcanic rocks and are known for their exceptional range of colors and perfect crystal geodes. The warm brown and gold tones are characteristic of this region and make Brazilian geodes among the most sought-after worldwide.
