The rim is a deep glossy black brown that fades to a soft gray blue band, and inside that band opens a cave of white quartz crystals, bright and sharp all the way in to a dark hollow at the center. The back is the geode as it came out of the ground, a speckled gray blue skin with a few pale spots, so front and back are two completely different pieces. She weighs a little under a pound and fits in the palm of your hand.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePut her on a bookshelf at eye level, on the bathroom counter, or on a desk where a lamp reaches into the cave, because the crystals inside catch light from any angle and the black rim frames them like a doorway. She reads as a small piece and she is meant to be picked up and looked into.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAgate is the steady stone in crystal tradition, the one kept in a busy room to slow everything down a notch and keep the people in it grounded and talking kindly. Black agate in particular is read as protective, a quiet guard on a shelf by the door or the bed, and the clear quartz cave inside is read as a clearing and amplifying space, so the pair together is a small safe room that keeps the energy around it clean. A geode, a plain rock outside with a crystal room inside, is a favorite reminder that what looks ordinary from the street can be extraordinary once you are let in.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe product photographs show the exact piece you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecifications\u003cbr\u003eStone: natural agate geode with a quartz crystal cave, polished face, flat cut base\u003cbr\u003eOrigin: Brazil\u003cbr\u003eSize: about 3 x 2.5 x 2 inches\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 13.2 oz\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlease note: this is a natural specimen and the crystal cave, the banding and the speckled back are exactly as they formed and were cut.
