Description

The crystals of the half-sphere, which emerge from the translucent agate, are both clear and matt. Some are coated with calcite or oxidised iron ore. The opening makes this amethyst half-sphere all the more special, for with its small crystals it looks like the mouth of a shark.

Our mineralogist's assessment
The half-sphere has grown together seamlessly from amethyst, clear quartz and agate. They suit and harmonise with each other very well.
  1. The front view with the amethyst is beautiful, through the lilac and the mouth-like form of the sphere.
  2. The rounded agate side offers a landscape of druses and lines.
  3. The sphere can be placed on a lamp, as its various minerals light up beautifully.

Effect and meaning

The shark's mouth formed in the half-sphere and marked with amethyst teeth is meant to remind us of respect for nature and the environment.

Origin and selection

Every piece is personally reviewed and selected by the house — by colour, form, crystal habit and above all rarity. We state an origin only where it is documented.

Every piece is reviewed by us; its colour is untreated and undyed. Where a piece has been cut, polished or mounted, we declare this openly in the technical record. Certificate wording and provenance documents are confirmed with the house before publication.
